Who would spend (or could afford to) $115000 on the most "off road cabable" vehicle so you can run it up a jeep trail?

Is that the ticket on the new electric Hummer?

The same people who would buy a new Ford Raptor with a V-6 instead of a V-8 for around $90,000

:facepalm:

You can reserve a Hummer for 2023/2024 delivery.
It's still vaporware at this point, right? (Like the Tesla Cybertruck).
The actual Shreveport truck factory closed in 2012 after the H-3 stopped production in 2009, and the Canyon transferred out.
I wouldn't touch one until they had several years to get the bugs out.
And at that, I would have to hit the lottery.
Twice.

"Most off road capable" is an "opinion". Just because it can crab walk and has 35" tires with clearance and some kind of lockers does not make it the "most off road capable"... but, all that Lithium does seem to make the cost $115K.

I like to stay around $60K and less when buying, even if I have to add parts later for better 4wheeling. At that price point, I can suck up the depreciation without stress.

I'm pretty sure that given $115000 on a Jeep, that Hummer (GMC) would get dogged out.

Is that their test mule?
Close. We were wheeling around Canyonlands in Moab back in Sept and came across a photo shoot for the Hummer reveal movie just released. They were using these mules as CGI vehicles to get the shot and spice them up in after shoot. Look closely and you see the CGI “markers” or whatever they are called.

GM is building a new EV plant. They will make the Hummers, electric versions of the Chevrolet pickup and an "Autonomous Shuttle" there. Since they plan to build mostly electric vehicles in the 2030s and beyond, many more plants are going to be converted.
