Default knock-off hummer

I just learned of a chinese knock-off humer h1.



"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"

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.

I guess we should be happy. No maybe we will be able to buy an H1 for the price of a Kia.

If it was cheap enough you wouldn't mind tearing it up off road so much. Problem is I bet it would break down far more often than the AMG version. Besides, I buy American anyway.

Looks cool, but it's probably got a four cylinder engine. [][/align]

I dont think it looks too bad either, hummer needs to redisign and bring back the h1, make it cheaper and made better for civilian so it will sell better. 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 honestly hate the fact that they are copying the H1... but now that the H1 has been discontinued... all the power to them in my book! I wonder when they are going to start importing them

Bet AMG won't even be able to sue them for copyright or patent infringement.
