They were hooped into sling hooks and dropped off of planes, ready for the infantry to hop inside and engage in combat. No, we aren’t talking about a new Fast & Furious movie. It is the renowned military battle truck, the AM General Humvee. AM General did make road-going versions of it that were less aggressive and more soft and equipped for day-to-day use. However, what we have here is a military spec model; a 2008 AM General M1097 to be specific. It is a no-nonsense carrier that you can use for extreme off-roading or put into hauling work and it shows 57,200 miles on it.
When it comes to the exterior, matt black paint adorns it, and beige canvas covers surround the cabin area. It has hints of beige popping here and there including the headlight frames, the sling hooks on the bonnet, and the side mirrors indicating that the black paint was a custom touch. The truck rides on robust wheels wrapped in 37-inch Radial Run Flat Tires that give it a nice lift and a lot of grip. Recovery hooks are installed on the front bumper, and the airlift bumper at the rear was used to hook and drop these trucks from the aircraft. As you get inside through the canvas doors, it is a straightforward interior with two bucket seats. Switchgears for the lights and the starting gear are to the left of the steering wheel and the gauges are to the right. The climate control panel can be found next to the gauges. A switch on the floor activates the high beams. between the seats is a cargo space that runs to the back of the vehicle, often used as a space to keep military equipment.
Under the hood of this 2008 AM General M1097 is a 6.5L V8 Diesel engine that sends power to all four wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. This constant four-wheel drive system is great for off-roading terrains. Stopping power is courtesy of hydraulic disc brakes with a 4-wheel anti-lock braking system.

Let’s talk about the difference between the Hummer H1 and the AM General Humvee. Since the Humvee was primarily intended for military use, AM General did not initially have plans to create a more comfortable and modest variant of the truck. Thanks to Austrian and American celebrity Arnold Schwarzenegger, AM General was convinced to produce the first civilian version of the Humvee, the Hummer H1, in 1992. However, both Hummer and Humvee models were built separately and we often see consumers mistake the two vehicles for one since ex-military Humvees can be purchased by civilians as well. This example is reported to be an ex-military 2009 AM General Humvee that is currently located in California. It is great for rugged off-roading while hauling your everything and being one with your surroundings.

The Humvee is America’s best-known military vehicle. No matter if it’s an American military base at home or abroad, or starring in a thrilling Hollywood movie, the AM General Humvee takes center stage. It even spawned a civilian variant, called the Hummer. But let’s focus on the Humvee here. You see, when military Humvees retire from active duty, they tend to receive a makeover for civilian life. This 2009 AM General Humvee M1151 is one. The M1151 code tells us that it started life as an Enhanced Armament Carrier. However, it’s now gotten a comprehensive makeover to turn it into a formidable off-road beast – not that it wasn’t one before.
