""News fresh off the Chinese press - The Dongfeng Humvee that we talked about a few times previously will go on the market early next year, unfortunatly it wont be the full on army use one, but one aimed at the civillian population - so it will probably have leather seats, and a CD player. We’re waiting on more information, but we know the pricing already - a cool 1.4 million RMB"" http://www.hummerguy.net/2007/02/ Post #: 1 RE: knock-off hummer - 1/28/2008 1:45:38 PM    3hummers   Posts: 11687 Joined: 9/23/2007 Status: online They always have ripped off everybody else's design. The Chinese have been the biggest thieves in history. They have brought their country from a backward laughing stock into the present on stolen technology. Wild Bill let them get away with murder and gave them what they didn't steal. _____________________________ 2006 H1 Alpha wagon 2000 H1 Slantback 1997 H1 wagon 2008 H3 Alpha (in reply to xzachx2112) Post #: 2 RE: knock-off hummer - 1/28/2008 1:48:08 PM    3hummers   Posts: 11687 Joined: 9/23/2007 Status: online I guess we should be happy.

Problem is I bet it would break down far more often than the AMG version. Besides, I buy American anyway. _____________________________ 2006 H1 Alpha wagon 2000 H1 Slantback 1997 H1 wagon 2008 H3 Alpha (in reply to HummBob) Post #: 5 RE: knock-off hummer - 1/28/2008 4:22:34 PM    BassGear Posts: 1131 Joined: 5/29/2007 From: Raider Nation BLING Status: offline Looks cool, but it's probably got a four cylinder engine.

Ill still always like the original h1 better than any other car even if they redesign the h1. hummer should redisign it like jeep did with the wrangler recently, subtle design changes, and other subtle stuff to make it a lot better.

I wonder when they are going to start importing them :) _____________________________ eToolSmith Development (in reply to xzachx2112) Post #: 9 RE: knock-off hummer - 1/28/2008 7:55:29 PM    3hummers   Posts: 11687 Joined: 9/23/2007 Status: online Bet AMG won't even be able to sue them for copyright or patent infringement. _____________________________ 2006 H1 Alpha wagon 2000 H1 Slantback 1997 H1 wagon 2008 H3 Alpha (in reply to Injunfarian) Post #: 10 RE: knock-off hummer - 1/28/2008 8:14:31 PM    HummerGuy Posts: 6652 Status: offline Nope.  They wont be able to.  Most patents are only good for 25 years.  After that, the world has free reign unless they renew the patent, which I doubt is going to happen, and mostly never is approved.  What a coincidence it's 25 years after the Humvee that this is released.

Do they let you take the classes this early? In IL you can take them when you hit 15.

I like to say im 15 because all of my friends are older than me but really im 14(and a half) but here in  ohio () you do take your classes at 15 as well, and i will not procrastinate one bit in getting my license! unfortunately,they are considering making a law that will change the driving age to a half-year later I know thats not much but think back to before you got your license, a half year seems like forever longer! and I dont think I'll have a hummer for a while (maybe a repo-h3) because my budget is whatever I can get for a 99 accord.
