The 2009 H3T is Hummer’s First True Truck
H3T is designed to work hard and play harder.
H3T offers sedan luxuries, truck capabilities and off-road thrill-abilities! The 2009 Hummer H3T is bigger than a midsize truck and smaller than a full-size truck, creating its own niche in the market. It’s based on the architecture of the popular H3, but features a five-passenger crew cab and a separate five-foot-long bed. In addition to its unique size, the H3T offers the off-road capability only a Hummer can provide. It is the only midsize truck to come standard with full-time four-wheel drive, 32-inch tires and functional skid shields. It is also the only midsize truck to offer front and rear locking differentials, as well as 33-inch tires – and a properly equipped V8-powered H3T Alpha can tow up to 5,900 pounds.

The 2008 Hummer H2 Power Play
Get the inside story on the H2, too!
It looks the same, but Hummer has changed the H2 game! You asked for it and Hummer has delivered with a new 6.2-liter V8 with 393 hp and a monstrous 415 lb/ft of torque. A new six-speed automatic transmission helps the engine put the power down with excellent efficiency. What’s more, H2’s tow rating has increased to 8,000 pounds. However, the best thing about the power and transmission upgrades is H2’s reduced mass and improved balance.
