Originally designed for military use, the AM General Humvee was
released to the civilian market due to popular demand as the "H1."
For the 2006 model year, GM released the upgraded H1 "Alpha,"
equipped with GM's 6.6-liter Duramax turbo-diesel V8 engine backed
by a 5-speed Allison 1000 automatic transmission. Horsepower was up
46 percent over the previous H1s, and peak torque was increased 18
percent over the standard H1. Treated to a full workup of
Predator's performance accessories, this Hummer features a
Predator-tuned exhaust, Predator intake with a hood scoop, Predator
injection and ECU management to produce 640 ft/lbs of torque and
360hp. Additional Predator accessories include the Trek-R steering
kit, roof rack, brush guard and an LED lighting package. Other
major modifications from the previous H1s included the use of
special high-strength steel in the chassis frame, a more powerful
steering gear, quieter axle differentials, redesign of the geared
hubs to use quieter helical gears, new induction, exhaust, and
electrical power systems, and reengineering of the fuel supply and
filtration system. A revised fuel system also increases the
capacity of the Alpha H1's two onboard tanks to 51.5 gallons, 9.5
gallons more than the previous H1s. To accommodate the new
dimensions of the Duramax 6600 and Allison 1000, the body of the H1
Alpha is positioned 2 inches higher than the previous H1. This
provides slightly more clearance for the body panels from the
wheels and from potential obstacles on trails. Now boasting 16
inches of ground clearance as well an aggressive approach and
departure angles (72/37.5 degrees), the H1 could climb a
22-inch-high obstacle, handle a 60-percent grade, and wade through
up to 30 inches of water riding on an 18-inch GT/Cepek wheels with
beadlocks and Central Tire Inflation System tire pressure control
wrapped with Toyo Open Country MT 38x13.5x18 tires. The brake
rotors were also larger, going from 10.7 inches to 12 inches in
diameter. Additionally, this "Alpha" features a custom black
leather interior with sound-deadening throughout, as well as a
custom Alcantara headliner, tinted windows, a MOMO steering wheel
and an upgraded audio system. Originally acquired from Hummer of
Cincinnati, this H1 has been well cared for, receiving vehicle
inspections and service since new. With a total mileage of 81,646,
the current odometer shows 33,517 miles, as the factory odometer
was replaced (the title reads mileage exempt). Above and beyond the
GM "Alpha" upgrades, the most recent owner strived to upgrade this
H1 Alpha with the help of Predator, Inc., and Canepa.
