The Humvee is the most popular American military vehicle mainly because it’s the most prevalent in any film that features even a passing reference to the military. Introduced by AM General in 1985, the Humvee has been made in a variety of forms, including as troop carriers, ambulances, missile carriers, shelter carriers, base platforms, and more. Once Humvees retire from active service, many of them find themselves pressed into civilian life, with varying degrees of restoration and revamping. This 1988 AM General Humvee M998 is one such vehicle, and it’s up for sale in Aberdeen, North Carolina. What was once a cargo/troop carrier, hence the M998 code is now a quirky and interesting runabout that you could use in town if you desire. Let’s find out more without any delay.
Exterior and Interior
This 1988 AM General Humvee M998 has been repainted in black and has been upgraded with LED lighting too, for better drivability at night. However, its signature Humvee silhouette remains, as do elements such as its removable canvas doors, chunky tires, blue-painted tow hooks and towering stack-style exhaust. The vehicle also sports an open cargo bed, which you can use in a variety of ways. The interior of this 1988 AM General Humvee M998 retains its original four seats, bisected by a large flat floor on which more cargo can be carried. After all, as a troop/cargo carrier, the vehicle’s usage case scenario was heavily multipurpose, so comfort wasn’t a priority. However, you can upgrade the interior as you see fit. Popular upgrades include climate control systems, leather seats and banging sound systems. Alternatively, you can keep it as-is as a testament to the vehicle’s tough spirit.
Engine
This 1988 AM General Humvee M998 comes with a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated Detroit Diesel engine, paired with a Turbo-Hydramatic TH-400 3-speed automatic transmission. Four-wheel drive is standard, with selectable high and low ranges and Torsen-style differentials. The suspension uses an independent design with A-arms for the front and rear, with coil springs and hydraulic shock absorbers. So, it’s pretty capable on and off road and won’t rattle your spine either.
Built for military service rather than civilian comfort, this 2002 AM General M1025A2 HMMWV is the sort of machine that makes almost anything else on the road look ordinary. Showing approximately 21,753 miles, this up-armored ECV-platform example combines the unmistakable four-door HMMWV body with military hardware, deep-water fording equipment, communications gear, and a roof-mounted weapon station. The display gun mounted up top is a non-functional prop and is not a real firearm, giving this Humvee the visual presence of a combat-configured vehicle without representing an operational weapon. For collectors drawn to military vehicles, the M1114 stands out as one of the more imposing evolutions of the HMMWV platform.
The 2010 AM General M1097R1 HMMWV is a genuine heavy-variant military utility vehicle engineered around durability, payload capacity, and mobility over terrain that would stop most conventional trucks. Showing 12,167 miles, this example carries a custom Desert Tan paint job and has been adapted for more comfortable civilian use with an insulated and carpeted interior, roof-mounted HVAC system, six-seat configuration, and upgraded seating. Its military roots remain unmistakable, however, with a 10,000-pound GVWR, portal geared hubs, independent suspension, four-wheel drive, and heavy-duty body construction. According to the seller, this example also features a fully armored configuration, giving an already imposing M1097R1 even greater presence.
Built for military service and engineered to handle extreme environments, this 2007 AM General Humvee M1097R1 represents the civilian opportunity to experience one of the most iconic tactical vehicles ever produced. Showing approximately 49,345 miles, this Humvee features the desirable M1097R1 configuration with a turbocharged 6.5L diesel V8, 4WD capability, portal gear axles, and a rugged military-spec chassis designed for durability in demanding conditions. Finished in Desert Tan with a soft top convertible body configuration, this Humvee retains the unmistakable presence and purpose-built character that made the platform legendary.

The Hummer H1 is already one of the most unmistakable vehicles ever adapted for civilian use, but this 2000 AM General Hummer H1 takes that military-derived platform in a completely different direction. Showing approximately 86,031 miles, this example has been transformed through a custom stretch limousine conversion that dramatically extends the standard H1 body and adds a dedicated rear passenger compartment. Finished in tan with a custom beige leather interior, the build combines the H1’s heavy-duty 4WD hardware, portal geared hubs, and 6.5L turbo-diesel V8 with luxury-oriented touches including rear captain’s chairs, a custom bar and console, wood flooring, ambient LED lighting, integrated speakers, and a Pioneer touchscreen audio system. It is an unusual combination of military-grade presence and custom limousine-style accommodation.
