00:00Hi everybody, Jeff Dunham and Walter.
00:02It's a beautiful day at Dunham Family Motors.
00:04I think it's so-so.
00:05Do you have something sad and tired sitting in your driveway?
00:08Yeah, my idiot son-in-law.
00:10Most vehicles are designed to get you from point A to point B.
00:13This vehicle was designed with a mission.
00:17To be the ultimate light tactical military vehicle.
00:21It just looks wild.
00:22It did its job so well, somebody said, hey, let's add cup holders, air conditioning and a stereo.
00:27Because nothing says daily driver like full combat readiness.
00:31This is the story of two vehicles with the same DNA, twins.
00:36But when they came down the production line, one got shipped off to war, while the other got all the
00:41cushy stuff.
00:42How about this?
00:43Look at the behemoth in our collection here.
00:45The 2600 Alpha, zero down.
00:48Yeah, and it's extra clean.
00:50You know what that means?
00:51Yeah, we finally washed one.
00:53Nope.
00:55Throughout time, humanity has been obsessed with getting places using anything but their own two feet.
01:01We've tried all kinds of things.
01:04Until finally, the greatest invention of all time.
01:08The automobile.
01:10Moron!
01:12These are the cars that drove us.
01:16In the history of the U.S. military, only two vehicles have marched from the battlefield to the driveway.
01:23The Jeep and the Humvee.
01:26They really capture the imagination of the American people.
01:29As it turns out, we needed one to pave the way for the other.
01:33The Humvee was half the new Jeep, except upgraded.
01:37You know, bigger, stronger.
01:38But to understand how we ended up lucky enough to squeeze a military machine into a two-car garage, we
01:43have to go all the way back to 1939.
01:47As the threat of impending conflict approached...
01:49There was a realization from our army that they needed a vehicle that was capable of operating in the off
01:57-road environment.
01:58And so the U.S. Army put out a call.
02:01U.S. automakers American Bantam...
02:03Yes, sir.
02:04Willys...
02:04Affirmative.
02:05...and Ford...
02:06Right away.
02:06...answered.
02:07They came out with the GPW.
02:09The pronunciation of it would eventually morph into Jeep.
02:15Jeeps were deployed to every corner of the globe, ready to spring into action.
02:22The American Jeep was absolutely revolutionary.
02:25The Jeep became famous during the Second and after the Second World War.
02:29The Jeep symbolized victory.
02:31And soon, the symbol of grit and determination became an image of pop culture from movies and television...
02:38It packs an awful wallop.
02:40...to comics and toys.
02:42A recoilless rifle that really shoots.
02:44But before long, playtime was over, and the Jeep returned to combat.
02:49In the jungles of Vietnam, with all of the rivers, with the swamps, it had limitations.
03:02And so it was determined that success could be achieved by harnessing the mighty military power of a checklist.
03:10The military went out to a variety of manufacturers and said, here are the specs we want.
03:14Something that can climb at a certain angle, a certain level of ground clearance, carry a certain payload, to go
03:19a certain speed.
03:20All these specs.
03:21And like they'd done with the Jeep, in February of 79, the Army put out a call to companies who
03:26were willing to take on this extensive checklist.
03:29Teledyne, Chrysler Defense, and AM General would pit their prototypes against each other at...
03:34The Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground.
03:36But one company had a small disadvantage.
03:38We weren't a huge organization.
03:40We were not a General Motors.
03:42But what they did have was...
03:44A real energized, hardworking core team.
03:47The sole focus of AM General Engineering was the Humvee.
03:52We were looking at it as a must-win contract.
03:56No pressure.
03:58Now, about that checklist.
04:00The Humvee specification required low-altitude parachute extraction.
04:06I'm going to need you to explain.
04:08A military cargo plane would open up their cargo door, deploy a chute, and drop it on the ground from
04:16like 20 feet going.
04:17A hundred miles an hour.
04:19So, how'd you do?
04:20We broke our frames.
04:23We actually...
04:25We had to strengthen the chassis of the Humvee to be able to withstand that.
04:31Check one.
04:32But the chassis didn't just need to survive being shoved out of an airplane.
04:35It also had to politely endure the constant pounding from mounted weapon systems.
04:40That strength of the chassis went up and held a weapons ring so that they could operate a machine gun
04:48360 degrees, a tow missile, or other weapons.
04:53We've actually mounted a 105 howitzer on a Humvee.
05:00Check two.
05:01The government's specification required 16 inches of ground clearance.
05:0716 inches?
05:09So, how'd they do it?
05:10We took a seating position of a soldier and put his feet right at the bottom of the frame rail.
05:18So, that means the tunnel comes up considerably high, about hip height.
05:22That's because that's where the drivetrain goes through, which gives it this unique additional clearance.
05:27Check.
05:28And you combine that with the wheel hub, it gives the Humvee tremendous off-road capability.
05:33The vehicle has to be able to enter five feet of salt water.
05:39As if that weren't enough, it also had to be shut off underwater.
05:43Sit there for an entire hour.
05:47Then restart.
05:48And drive out without having any detrimental effect on the vehicle.
05:53Wait.
05:54Does General Motors make an engine that can go fully underwater?
05:58We had to add a snorkel to the engine so that it could breathe.
06:02Check, check, check.
06:05After years of development, countless tweaks, and more than a few chassis later,
06:10the three prototypes rolled into Aberdeen Proving Grounds to go head-to-head in testing.
06:16The year was 1982.
06:18Olivia Newton-John was single-handedly making the FCC sweat with her cheeky double entendres.
06:24Let's get physical, physical.
06:27And testing of the top three prototypes of the U.S. military's newest high-mobility, multi-purpose wheeled vehicle was
06:34about to begin.
06:35While AM General was busy cracking chassis and flooding engines, Chrysler Defense and Teledyne were hard at work on their
06:42prototypes as well.
06:43Teledyne Continental, they were basing their prototype off of that Lamborghini Cheetah design.
06:50While Chrysler Defense's design was based on their existing expanded mobility truck.
06:55The Army took those prototypes to Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Maryland.
06:58The test and evaluation commands most comprehensive facility.
07:02The vehicles were put through over 600,000 miles of abuse in every miserable condition imaginable.
07:08Just 24 hours a day through all kinds of terrain and various environments.
07:14With each team nobly battling it out.
07:16Competing for a billion-dollar-plus contract to provide the Humvee for the Army, Marines, and Air Force.
07:22Ultimately, one was chosen.
07:25And that was the one that was designed by AM General.
07:28That it was the ultimate military vehicle.
07:31Selected for production by the U.S. Armed Forces in March of 1983.
07:35When we won the contract, it was like, wow, we actually had a party.
07:41And rumor has it, AM General partied into the PM that night.
07:47Because Dave and the gang now had over a billion reasons to party.
07:51It was one of the largest defense contracts ever.
07:53This was kind of the beginning of the Humvee phenomenon.
07:58The work became, oh my God, now we gotta do this.
08:02When AM General began cranking out its battle wagon for the military, it answered to two names.
08:07Hummer or Humvee.
08:09Ultimately, Humvee became the name that stuck, standard issue, and mission ready.
08:14And the Humvee's mission? Do everything.
08:16We created over 15 different variants.
08:20The Humvee was a huge step forward from the Jeep.
08:22It's more powerful.
08:23It's got greater ground clearance.
08:25It could go through 60 inches of water.
08:28It could go up a grade of 60%.
08:30The Humvee absolutely took it to the next level.
08:33For the next decade, the Humvee would exist exclusively during peacetimes.
08:37But that would all change.
08:39On December 20th of 1989.
08:42And for the first time, the Humvee was heading into combat.
08:46When we invaded Panama to get rid of Emmanuel Noriega.
08:49Drug agents arrested him on the spot.
08:51The Humvee, it performed exactly how they had hoped it would.
08:56Whether it was in an urban environment or in a jungle environment.
08:59It became the second Jeep, so to speak.
09:02Except upgraded.
09:03You know, bigger, stronger, and everything.
09:05Let's hope so.
09:06Because its next task...
09:09...was a doozy.
09:10The car all of a sudden became really world famous because of the Iraqi war.
09:18This was a war that was being televised in the United States.
09:22You could see these Humvees going across the desert.
09:25Big machine guns on top and on the left and on the right.
09:29You know, armored windows, armored this, armored that.
09:32Soon, the course of the Humvee's fate would be forever changed.
09:35Not on the battlefields of Iraq, but rather...
09:38In the executive conference room, he had a fella from marketing came in and said,
09:44We just got a phone call from a celebrity.
09:49By 1990, the Humvee was a critical part of the armed services operations.
09:53It could be seen transporting service members down the streets of many American cities from Maine to Oregon.
09:59Specifically, Astoria, Oregon.
10:02Welcome to Astoria.
10:03Astoria had become a popular filming location.
10:06And on one fateful day...
10:08This is your new kindergarten teacher.
10:12...those two worlds collided.
10:13So we were filming Kindergarten Cop.
10:16And we were driving on a freeway to get to the location.
10:20It was early in the morning.
10:21And then all of a sudden, I looked over to the other side.
10:24And there I saw a bunch of Humvees.
10:26It was like a lot of them.
10:28One after the next coming.
10:30And I looked at that and I said,
10:31This cars look so cool.
10:34I mean, it was unbelievable.
10:36The Austrian in Astoria was in awe.
10:39Hey, snap out of it.
10:41And he immediately fell in love with it.
10:43And then contacted AM General directly.
10:46I was so impressed by the cars.
10:47I got to look into if those cars are available.
10:50But there was one small hitch.
10:52It's not legal.
10:53But they said, no, you cannot really own one.
10:55Because for that, we would need permission from the Pentagon.
10:58And from the list was going on and on and on.
11:01Apparently, civilians can't just buy military equipment.
11:04He can't drive it on the road.
11:06It's illegal.
11:07But Schwarzenegger was never one to shy away from aggressive negotiations.
11:12And so...
11:13I was the chairman of the President's Council of Physical Fitness.
11:17I said, you know, I know Dick Cheney.
11:18I know Colin Powell.
11:20I said, let me just get into it.
11:21And I got the permission.
11:23They felt kind of like there's no secret military stuff there
11:27that we should be concerned about.
11:29So I basically bought one.
11:32The Pentagon may have rubber-stamped the sale,
11:34but that doesn't mean the Department of Transportation
11:36would let the rubber hit the road.
11:39Of course, it wasn't street legal.
11:41We had to build the vehicle for him
11:43to meet better motor vehicle safety standards.
11:46It was a completely new electrical system.
11:48All new lighting.
11:49All new sensors.
11:50Adding ABS.
11:51You need to have the interior done in a padded way
11:55because if you have an accident,
11:56you hurt yourself.
11:58So it's safe.
11:59So it is legal.
12:00We had to develop doors
12:02because the Humvee doors were cloth
12:04and there's a requirement for side impact.
12:07What I like about the Humvee is
12:09you don't have to do a thing
12:12about building it up and making it ballsier
12:15because it has the biggest wheels on it.
12:17It has the interior that's tough.
12:20It has the windshield wipers that are tough.
12:22Everything is rugged about this car.
12:25The military version is very stark inside.
12:27Arnold Schwarzenegger doesn't want it stark inside.
12:30He wants a nice car.
12:31So they made it a little bit nicer inside,
12:34a little bit more usable.
12:35Including putting an air conditioning in there
12:37which was not in there,
12:38and a heater and stuff like that.
12:40Of course, it needs power windows
12:41and powered door locks and heated seats.
12:44A whole new interior.
12:45I then took it back to Hummer,
12:48the AM General,
12:49and I said,
12:50now here's what the civilian Hummer could look like.
12:52So it is street legal.
12:54So it became kind of like a concept car.
12:57One day at work,
12:59our CEO comes on and said,
13:01one year from today,
13:03we're going into production on a commercial Hummer.
13:06It's going to be available to the public.
13:10The plan was for AM General to make
13:12the military Humvee
13:13as well as the civilian H-1 Hummer.
13:16I would regularly visit the factory,
13:19test drive the various trucks that they built.
13:22He would bring them to Aspen.
13:24I would drive them without snow chains.
13:26Up the mountains,
13:28there was deep snow,
13:29and it just climbed up to the top of that mountain.
13:32On the shoulders of the collaboration
13:34with AM General and Arnold.
13:36They made a few changes.
13:37Then they built the first Hummer.
13:40And I got not only the first Hummer,
13:43the concept car,
13:44but they also now built the first Hummer
13:47of the assembly line.
13:49All the workers were there,
13:50and they gave me the key to the Hummer.
13:52It was a day of celebration.
13:54Everyone was very happy.
13:55And I was very happy.
13:59And so what do you call
14:01the first civilian Humvee
14:02built specifically
14:03for the biggest action star in the world?
14:05He's the Terminator,
14:07the tough guy,
14:08and this is a tough vehicle.
14:13It was love at first drive,
14:15and Arnold wanted to share that feeling
14:17with the world.
14:18He helped convince AM General
14:19that millions of people
14:20will buy a real off-road car.
14:22The biggest movie star in the world
14:24had just launched a free ad campaign.
14:26I would use this car
14:27to drive up to a movie premiere,
14:30and then all of a sudden
14:31people saw this car,
14:32and paparazzis would be photographing it,
14:34and all of a sudden
14:35the picture was out there in the media.
14:38Oh, and speaking of ad campaigns...
14:40When you've got a real thirst,
14:42nothing can keep you
14:43from the ice-cold citrus taste
14:44of Mellow Yellow.
14:45Mellow Yellow bought 10 vehicles,
14:48and that was the first vehicles
14:50we ever built commercially,
14:52and they were rough.
14:53Me and the Hummer
14:54took a little shortcut.
14:55When I first heard
14:56that AM General
14:57was planning a civilian Hummer,
14:59my thought about it
15:01was it was ridiculous.
15:03Until I actually saw it.
15:05The H-1 very much
15:06looked like the military version.
15:07A wolf in a field of sheep.
15:10And it very much operated
15:11like the military version.
15:13Climb the steepest hills
15:14and conquer the toughest terrain.
15:16The Hummer is a military truck.
15:18You can get out of any situation
15:20with the Hummer
15:20in the desert or in the snow.
15:22Especially with unique features
15:24like the...
15:25Central tire inflation system.
15:27You have automatically inflating
15:29or deflating of the tires
15:31from inside.
15:32So you have more grip
15:33to get out of any kind
15:34of a situation.
15:36Go through 30 inches of water.
15:38Blast in snow.
15:39Just like with the big deltoids,
15:41with the calves,
15:42the abs sticking out
15:44and all of this stuff.
15:45And it just,
15:46you turn on the engine.
15:47Vroom, vroom.
15:47You know,
15:48it was bossy sounding.
15:49It was just perfect.
15:52Thanks to Arnold's backing,
15:53the H1 had no problem
15:55drawing attention.
15:56Just not the kind
15:57that ends in a sale,
15:58which left AM General's
16:00marketing team
16:00asking the question,
16:02Who is the H1 Hummer customer?
16:04A Hummer is not for everyone.
16:07In one word,
16:08rich people.
16:09Okay, two words.
16:10Add options,
16:11and the price climbs
16:12to an eye-popping
16:13$91,218.
16:16Which adjusts
16:17to $176,000 today.
16:19But even if you were sold
16:21on the price,
16:22good luck finding one
16:22at your local dealership.
16:24In fact,
16:25there were only two ways
16:26to buy a Hummer.
16:27Fly to South Bend, Indiana
16:28and take their driving course,
16:30or order one
16:31from the Neiman Marcus
16:32Christmas catalog
16:33and fly to South Bend, Indiana
16:35and take their driving course.
16:36Either way,
16:37two Hummers
16:38made the perfect
16:39his and her holiday gifts.
16:41And it was successful enough.
16:43I mean,
16:43at the end,
16:43they didn't sell,
16:44you know,
16:44a million of these cars
16:45which is what you really want.
16:46To do that,
16:47the Hummer needed to court
16:48a new customer.
16:50And in 1998,
16:51that slightly tamed beast
16:53took center stage
16:54at the Detroit Auto Show.
16:55The buzz was loud enough
16:57to reach the ears
16:58of a high-ranking executive
16:59who made a phone call.
17:01I got a call from Jack Smith
17:03who was the CEO
17:04of GM at that time.
17:05And he says,
17:05Mike,
17:06you've been to the Detroit Auto Show
17:07and seen the reaction
17:08to the Hummer?
17:09And I go,
17:10yeah, I have.
17:10It's pretty amazing, Jack.
17:11I think there's something
17:12to this brand.
17:13We came up with this idea
17:15that we wanted to buy
17:16the brand from AIM General.
17:17General Motors
17:18was all in on the Hummer.
17:20We would design
17:21and provide all the parts
17:23and engineering
17:23and in return,
17:24we would pay AIM General
17:26a manufacturing fee.
17:27General Motors
17:28came out with the age two.
17:30The Hummer
17:31was going to be a daddy.
17:35Make it smaller,
17:36more user-friendly,
17:37with a nice interior,
17:39but authentic Hummer,
17:40and we could sell
17:41a lot of them.
17:41As for the man
17:42who had already sold
17:43lots of Hummers,
17:44Arnold agreed to make
17:45about six appearances
17:46for Hummer
17:47to launch the H2.
17:48Good to see you.
17:49It became just a huge hit.
17:52I like very much
17:53to buy these Hummers.
17:55And with the H2
17:56hogging the spotlight,
17:58it was time
17:59for the civilian H1
18:00to take a bow.
18:02They thought,
18:02if this car's going
18:02to come to an end,
18:03let's go out
18:04with a blaze of glory.
18:06They decided to come up
18:08with something called
18:08the Hummer Alpha.
18:11They put in the bigger
18:126.6 liter Duramax engine,
18:14and stronger transmission.
18:15It was just bigger
18:16and badder.
18:17The beginning of the end
18:19and the last of its kind.
18:21The H2 is now all alone
18:23in the product line,
18:24which didn't sit right
18:25with Mike.
18:26I sold GM on the idea
18:27that we had to do an H3.
18:29And then,
18:30someone sold someone
18:32on the H3 marketing campaign
18:34where a robot
18:35impregnates a monster.
18:36Genius.
18:37Well,
18:38be it Mike
18:39or the robot,
18:40the H3 was conceived
18:41and then in 2006
18:42was delivered
18:43right on time.
18:46The H3
18:48was an even
18:48smaller version.
18:51With H1,
18:52H2,
18:52and H3,
18:53we got a franchise.
18:54A franchise
18:55that would prove
18:55short-lived,
18:56undone by a sudden
18:57spike in gas prices,
18:59and the minor inconvenience
19:00of a global
19:01financial meltdown.
19:02And eventually,
19:03General Motors
19:04just decided
19:04that the sun set it.
19:05The sun didn't rise again
19:06for the Hummer brand
19:07until 2021
19:09when
19:12it's been resurrected.
19:14The new
19:14all-electric Humvee.
19:16Who would have thought?
19:17With electric Hummer,
19:18it was fantastic.
19:20Because before
19:20H1 Hummer
19:21birthed the H2,
19:23H3,
19:24or the EV,
19:26the Hummer
19:27sprang forth
19:28from the military might
19:30of the United States Army's
19:32most trusted workhorse.
19:33It could do things
19:34like no other vehicle.
19:35And there's still
19:36nothing better
19:37than the Humvee
19:38when it comes to
19:38the light tactical vehicle
19:40for military requirement.
19:41It was, like,
19:42absolutely phenomenal.
19:44But the Humvee
19:45had another role
19:46to inspire millions
19:47of Americans.
19:49I love this thing
19:50for all the right reasons.
19:52Rugged,
19:53battle-proven,
19:54versatile,
19:55mission-ready,
19:56and reliable.
19:57Just like the proud
19:58men and women
19:59who've served our country
20:00while driving it.
20:02Let's see what's up here.
20:07That's right there.
20:09That's how you do it.
20:12Wow.
20:14So, thank you,
20:15Hummer,
20:16for the adventure.
20:19Thank you,
20:21Humvee,
20:21for your service.
20:24And God bless the USA.
20:27Oh,
20:28and I almost forgot.
20:29Thanks, Arnold.
20:31Let's have some fun now.
20:39I kill you!
20:40I kill you!
20:40I kill you!
20:41I kill you!
20:41I kill you!
