I bet a lot of "grown up" boys are buying them for themselves.

"....General Motors Corp.'s Hummer H2. It's a vehicle that has gone from the deserts of Iraq ..."

Don't think the H2 has made it anywhere near Iraq.. except maybe Saddam had bought a few...

The H2 is the "civilianized" model.

If the real ones were about $15,000 cheaper, I'd have one in my garage.

I sure would -- if I could find one.

It would be the bees-knees for playing with the cats.

I like the soapbox derby one made of wood in that H2 commercial better than any motorized one in the stores. If I was still a kid, that's the one I'd ask for. Someone should make that kit for kids to build if it's not out there already.

Am I the only one who's not all that enthralled by the H2?

Now, the "real" Hummer!!! That's what I want (get your minds out of the gutter! I mean the vehicle! Sheesh!).

On a "cool hardware" scale, it hits about 11... 4 wheel independant suspension. Inboard disk brake rotors. Reduction gears in the hubs. Monsterously torquee turbo diesel engine. I believe it can be retrofitted with the military intake system that will allow you to run it on practicly anything... Kerosene, JP4, etc...

The only thing stopping me from buying one is about $115,000.
