The problem with the Hummer is somebody went out and paid retail for a new Hummer off the factory floor, and then spent another $300,000 on it.
Government Surplus is a great way to get stuff, but that Hummer is not surplus.

Chief in our town buys used patrol cars. Go figure.

How can you spend ANOTHER $300,000.00 on a Hummer?
Lived for a while in Rochester. Little town there has a retired MP E-8 on PD. He knew how to work the military surplus system. He got them so much stuff it was amazing! Got them to 2 USAF ambulances, commercial, not field duty, both had less then 8,000 miles on them.
