The Hummer HX Concept: Hot or Not?
I will be the first to admit that I just do not understand the appeal of a Hummer as a consumer vehicle. Who the hell needs a Hummer, really? Do you plan to come across enemy fire in rush hour traffic? Think you might have to go medieval on another soccer mom?
I see their aesthetic appeal, but I cringe every time a Hummer comes rolling up beside me on the highway. I always envision the driver going all Marge Simpson and suddenly crushing all the other, slow moving vehicles under his or her ginormous wheels.
That being said, this is the Hummer HX concept. What does it have? Well, it can acclimate to a variety of different trail conditions, just in case you decide to tackle the Rockies or something — or to climb up on all those minivans stopped at a light, I guess. Fits plenty of cargo needs, check. And it is supposedly ideal to deal with various “passenger whims.” Those are what scare me.
