it seriously lacked the drive train and suspension of the "Real Deal".

The H1 has the drive train and suspension of the 'real deal'. It's the civilian version of the military Humvee. The H2 and H3 have the straight axles since, if I remember correctly, the H2 is basically a suburban with a boxy 'Hummer' type body. I figure the H3 is based on a blazer chassis.

The steady decline of General Motors puzzles those who light their illegally imported Cuban cigars with $100 bills.
The 2006 model year will be the last for the Hummer H1.
Oh, no, can the culture take the hit?

Ironically, Jeeps and Unimogs are now part of the same Daimler-Chrysler "family".
