AMC American motors corporation spun off a military version of the company as a subsidiary called AM general (American Motors General) .....which distributed the Hummer. American motors developed, engineered, and built the original hummers for military use. Many of the parts are interchangeable with Jeeps, even to this day. Also Look at the 7 slot grill on the hummer.........now look at the Jeeps grill......also 7 slots. They're brothers!
So whenever you see a hummer be sure to say nice JEEP!
This is in fact close as far as GM buying hummer from AM general a former devision of chrysler. But 100% to this day WRONG, chrysler/jeep has done everything to shake the image of the hummer and jeep going hand in hand. If you look back to the facts JEEP and Ford are more closely related in building vehicles for the military then hummer ever was. Ford actually stole alot from jeep and ran with a different grille.
Not to be confused with hummer stealing the grille from jeep now days along with their concept ideas. SO MUCH SO THE HUMMER PLANT ALMOST HAD TO CLOSE DOWN BECAUSE OF THE LAWSUIT THEY COULD NOT AFFORD TO PAY. The court droped the case ruling in favor of the hummer that there was no consumer confusion but by then the damage had been done. No matter how hard they try they will always be TAHOES and TRAIL BLAZERS NOT JEEPS. lol I can not be the only jeep driver insulted by this lol
