Hummer H2 - DOTM Winner

AM General started making High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (or Humvees) for the U.S. Army in 1983. They started building the civilian models (or Hummers) in 1992.

In 1999, General Motors acquired exclusive ownership of the Hummer brand name and the marketing rights from AM General, but AMG still continues to manufacture the H1 Hummers for the civilian market. The H2 is GM's own version of the original Humvee, and it is built on GM's Suburban frame.

The 2006 Hummer H2 remains a very capable off-road vehicle. It is equipped with a locking rear differential, traction control, skid plates, and heavy-duty suspension. For additional off-road performance, the H2 can be equipped with a Suspension Package featuring air springs and an air compressor. The powertrain includes a 6.0L V8 engine producing 316-hp and 360 lb-ft of torque combined with a heavy-duty four-speed automatic transmission. The H2's interior is touched with brushed metal appliques, white-faced gauges, and eight-way power seats with two-position memory. A Luxury Package containing floor mats, Chrome Appearance Package, AM/FM stereo with 6-Disc CD changer, XM radio, chrome aluminum wheels, and chrome plated tubular side steps is also available.
