I was harnessing my inner Shawn when I wrote it! (I'm sure he'll find something humorous to say to that as well.)

Eh, not for road use. Not interested. That being said, I'd buy one if I could drive it on the road. And the first thing I would do to it is drop a 12v Cummins in it.
On that note, if anyone is in the market for a 12v keep your eyes on 10k forklifts. They're powered by 5.9 Cummins motors.

Wonder why they can't be titled?

Military vehicles aren't run through all the DOT stuff-crash testing and the like. They get a special exemption. That said, I'd love to see them crash test a Bradley or Abrams.

I just assumed hummers came with cummins side them. Especially the military type.

Nope, some 6'ish liter diesel, I think GM design and I believe the early models didn't have turbos. I'm with Viper, no way I'd pay a lot of money for one.

Yeah, if I remember correctly, they rock that crappy GM 6.5L diesel. Icky motor...though not as bad as that GM 6.2L diesel.
