1993 AM General HMMWV/HUMVEE



Extremely Rare Military Spec HMMWV with Civilian Interior, Leather Seats, Air Conditioning, Outfitted as Military Police Vehicle, 2 Owners from New, 21,900 Miles Shown, Street Legal and Registered, Only Ever in Civilian Use, Same Owner Since 1995, Dual Front Night Vision Lights


From what we have been told from several experts and the owner, this particular 1993 HMMWV is one of the few trucks that was produced on the military assembly line but then outfitted with a civilian interior. Very few trucks were ever produced like this, as they were only produced in limited numbers for two years. The factory would stop the production line and intercept the military truck and then fit it with the interior and street legal lights. It was the first time in American history that civilians could buy a military vehicle directly off the assembly line.


The civilian options were leather seating, air conditioning, and a stereo. This truck was originally ordered by a military contractor who supplied bedding to the armed forces. He bought the truck for his own personal use. He then sold it in 1995 to my client, a former military police officer. The truck was converted to military police spec and painted in Fort Bragg pattern camo. It shows just 21,900 miles and has been very well maintained by its enthusiastic current owner. It has only ever seen civilian use, and in fact gave tours of West Point and led cadets there for years. It features dual front night vision lights. It is in extremely nice condition. It is street legal and currently registered for road use.


This is a rare opportunity to acquire a significant HMMWV as trucks optioned this way do not often come up for public sale. It has great provenance. Its only two owners were both involved with the military and truck has such low miles and is in unmolested original condition. It is equipped with dual front night vision lights.


The civilian headlights and taillights are boxed and available for sale with the vehicle. The trailer pictured is not available for sale.


History of the HMMWV:

Introduced in 1985 by AM General, the High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) is was the replacement vehicle for the M151 series jeeps. Better known as the HUMVEE, or Hummer in civilian form, HMMWV's mission is to provide a light tactical vehicle for command and control, special purpose shelter carriers, and special purpose weapons platforms throughout all areas of the modern battlefield. It is supported using the current logistics and maintenance structure established for Army wheeled vehicles. The HMMWV is equipped with a high performance diesel engine, automatic transmission and four wheel drive that is air transportable and droppable from a variety of aircraft. The HMMWV can be equipped with a self-recovery winch capable of up to 6000 pound 1:1 ratio line pull capacity and can support payloads from 2,500 - 4,400 pounds depending on the model. The HMMWV is produced in several configurations to support weapons systems; command and control systems; field ambulances; and ammunition, troop and general cargo transport.

The HMMWV is the world standard in light military trucks. It is lightweight, high performance, four wheel drive, air transportable & droppable, land mobility system. The family includes utility/cargo, shelter carrier, armament carrier, ambulance, TOW missile carrier and scout-reconnaissance configuration. Payload varies by body style ranging from 1920 lbs on the 4 litter ambulance to 5300 lbs on limited availability Expanded Capacity variant, but is generally in the 5/4T range. A basic armor package is standard on the Armament and TOW missile carrier models. A more heavily armored, or Up-Armor HMMWV, is now being produced in limited quantities, primarily for the Scout Platoon application. Special supplemental armor versions have been developed for USMC requirements; unique model numbers designate these configurations.

How a New York cabby can get an MV-1 taxi for just $11k

Mon, Jan 18 2016

AM General – the same company that's behind the Hummer – is making it easier for taxi drivers to buy one of its wheelchair accessible cabs in New York. Between the factory's own incentives and those offered by the city, the new MV-1 Empire Taxi can cost as little as $11,200. Unlike other vehicles that can be converted after production for handicapped mobility, the MV-1 is designed by AM General from the get-go as a wheelchair-accessible vehicle. Mobility Ventures LLC – the AM General subsidiary responsible for the MV-1 – displayed a yellow cab version at the New York Auto Show in 2012, and is now bringing it to market as the MV-1 Empire Taxi. Pricing has been announced, and it is rather competitive, to say the least. Mobility Ventures charges $33,000 for one of its wheelchair-accessibly taxis. But the NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission is offering a $14,000 grant toward the purchase of a wheelchair-accessible cab, bringing the purchase price down to $19,000. Of course, the Commission will offer the same incentives towards the purchase of any wheelchair-accessible vehicle, but converting an existing van for the purpose generally costs a good $10-20k. So while a Nissan NV200 Taxi of Tomorrow, for example, might start at under $30k, add in the cost of mobility conversion and you're looking at a lot more – a solid $10k more, according to Mobility Ventures. If the $19k purchase price isn't enough to get New York cabbies on board, the manufacturer and the commission are offering further incentives for some customers. For every wheelchair-bound passenger a driver picks up, the city will pay the cabby 50 cents – that may not sound like a lot, but it adds up over time. What's more, Mobility Ventures will match the incentive for the first 25 customers who buy an MV-1 Empire Taxi, which combined can come to as much as $7,800 in payments over the course of a year. Work that into the equation and the end cost of the new Empire Taxi could come out to just $11,200. Mobility Ventures is working with other cities to offer similar incentives, with negotiations currently under way in Washington with the DC Taxi Commission. Mobility Ventures Unveils New "MV-1 Empire Taxi" for NYC - More Legroom and Luggage Space Than any Other Taxi or Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle - Innovative Program will Match TLC Payments to Drivers for Every Ride in a Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle, Along with Special MV-1 Purchase Discounts NEW YORK, Jan.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
