While the Hummer H1 has always had a dedicated enthusiast base thanks to its military pedigree, unmatched off-road capability and gargantuan size, there’s no denying that for most people, it’s a terrible vehicle to own. Bad fuel mileage, strange interior packaging and poor visibility are just a few of the things that make a Hummer H1 difficult vehicle to live with day-to-day, but for some people, this road-legal military vehicle is just about the perfect mode of transportation.
Readers who count themselves among the latter of those groups will definitely want to check out this 2006 Hummer H1, which is currently for sale through Scottsdale, Arizona-based dealership Hubbard Auto Center. More astute Hummer fans will know that 2006 was the final model year for the H1 and was the only year the superior Hummer H1 Alpha was available. All H1 Alphas featured a 6.6L LLY Duramax V8 turbo-diesel engine and five-speed Allison transmission, as opposed to the Detroit Diesel V8 and 5.7L L05 gas V8 engines that were offered in older variants. Additionally, Hummer H1 Alpha models featured additional chassis bracing, a different power steering assembly, quieter axle differentials and re-engineered electrical and fuel systems.
This 2006 Hummer H1 Alpha is a wonderful example of this rather rare breed, with a near-perfect body and just 32,569 miles on the odometer. One of our favorite aspects of this particular Humvee is the Pewter Metallix exterior color, which is more interesting than the Black Diamond hue that so many other Hummer H1 Alphas were finished in. Aftermarket parts like the roof rack, brush guard, winch, spare wheel/tire and alloy wheels also add to the overall desirability.
GM sold just 729 Hummer H1 Alpha models in 2006, so while this vehicle is expensive at $210,000, there’s no denying that it’s an uncommon piece of GM history. Check out the listing at this link for additional information and photos.

The Hummer in question here is a civilian version, not to be confused with the actual military Humvee.
As far as the asking price, it’s almost as much as AM General got for the real thing back in the day.
Sticker price was 156k on this truck
I found this truck for a friend in 2008. Bought it for $85,000. We did nearly all of the upgrades including the custom racks, ladder, led lighting and many more upgrades. It had Alpha wheels when we sold it to the dealer for 139k. Has more miles than they are advertising. Speedometer was changed by the dealer
Eric,
You claim is false. The work on this was just recently done by Hummercore, nice try!
BS,I had the rack custom built. Helped design it. That truck was bought out of Texas. We put all the lighting etc. Someone added the rear ladder and stupid looking wheels on it. Milage is higher by 18k or more. Check the sticker on the drivers door. Why misrepresent the truck? I can tell you the entire history. We bought it for 85k. Sold on ebay for 139k. FACTS
Eric,
Again, your numbers are incorrect. We bought this back in 2016 and it had 31,4xx miles on it. If you are saying the miles were incorrect at that time then you are the one that made the mistake and misrepresented the vehicle. We did just get this back and our system did populate the miles from when we had it before and has been updated to 32,569. We sold this in early 2017 to a client in California and he did not keep it long and consigned it with CNC Motors and then with Hummercore. Our client bought this from Hummercore recently and spent a small fortune with them modifying it with the following,
Rear ladder
center console seat
dash basket
LED light bar lights
brush guard lights
brush guard
custom headliner
light bar with brace
custom thermal camera bracket
Duramax tune with power select
H1 hood grill
seat belt assembly kit
360 camera
Pioneer 7″ nav
USB ports
lightbar flashers
train horns
siren w/ PA
camera monitor
Nav TV
FLIR camera
Again, your “FACTS” are wrong and if you need anymore feel free to reach out to me.
That truck was bought out of California from my friend. I found it for him in Texas. It had FLIR and the ICOM Radio installed in Yexas by the original owner that we bought it from. We installed the Rubber Duck switch panel, Ibis tire carrier and someone removed the Ibis fuel can carrier to make room for the ladder. There is a ladder on my custom rack that is removable and hangs from any position on the rack. The seat belts were aircraft. Original owner was a helicopter pilot. Mileage is whatever the odometer shows PLUS the Federal sticker on the drivers door jamb says put their by the AM General dealer. Roofrack is H2O. Only 2 ever made.
Yes, I know and I emailed Dr Morris and also tried to call you but your number is different from when he gave it to me before. You might want to reach out to the Dr friend or feel free to call me. My number is all over the internet but if you want here is is too 480-318-2277. Why would I make false claims, I have all the receipts from the recent work.
Go to vehiclehistory.com and enter the Alphas VIN. The mileage was exactly correct when you bought it from the Dr, In 2018 the mileage magically goes DOWN, TWICE. There is your problem.
Eric,
We bought this in 2016 from your Dr buddy with about 31,xxx miles and he had it inspected just months before in California and it had 30,819 miles. We sold this in March of 2017 with 31,435 miles. Again, if you are saying the miles were wrong when we bought it then that is on your Dr buddy and he has not returned my call or email but I have sent him when you have said. That being said, everything from when we bought it and when we sold it follows perfectly on Carfax and miles have not gone down. I do not know what vinhistory,com is or where the pull their info but the miles are all correct from when we had the car and we just got this on consignment from a client that bought it out of California. I think if someone was really trying to mess with the odometer they would not bring it down a couple of hundred miles then 1,000 miles and then back up to normal. To me that seems like vinhistory.com has an error or clerical error but not a true error as you can check Carfax and it all aligns up perfectly.
WOW GOOD CATCH . NOT COOL MAN NOT COOL. JUST STARTED SHOPPING FOR ONE . CANT TRUST MOST OF THESE CLOWNS WOW
Damn! That’s nice!
