A proud GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 Pickup owner has shared photos of his newly modified battery-electric truck online, which was recently kitted out with a gloss black vinyl wrap and aftermarket wheels and tires.
HummerChat.com user Maligned shared these photos of his GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 pickup on the enthusiast forum earlier this week. As many readers will know, all examples of the GMC Hummer EV Edition 1 come identically equipped with an Interstellar White exterior, so the truck has so far only been officially shown in this exterior color. This vinyl-wrapped example gives us a good idea of what it will look like painted in a gloss black shade, and we must say the bronzed tow hooks and exterior badging looks great against the backdrop of a darker body color. The vinyl wrap features KPMF Gloss Phantom Black vinyl and was completed by Midnight Protective Films in Troy, Michigan.
This truck also rides on a set of 24-inch Fuel D741 aftermarket alloy wheels, which are wrapped in a set of 35-inch Federal Xplora MTS rubber. The owner says these wheels and tires perform “about the same as the stock wheels/tires,” based on his observations, although the road noise from the Federal tires is a bit louder than stock. The owner plans to use the stock wheels and tires for winter driving and will keep this set of larger aftermarket wheels for the summer. This truck also has a rear window decal that combines an American flag and a buck, so it seems as though this Hummer EV is a hunting or wildlife enthusiast.
One interesting thing this owner reports is the public’s reaction to the gargantuan Hummer EV. Not only does he get a ton of looks and reactions out on the road, but some people have even stopped by his house to get a closer look at the so-called “super truck.”
“It’s amazing how many people have stopped by my house to look at it, have waved/honked, and stopped to take photos when I’m out,” he said in a post on HummerChat.com. “The attention is wild.”

damn that looks badass.
Minus the wheels, totally agree. This truck was built to be black.
Agreed. It looks great in black but I really find low profile wheel/tire combos on big 4x4s to be really annoying.
That thing is awesome! if only I could win the lottery…
If only you could stop being so poor.
I an’t poor, MOST people couldn’t afford this, I bet u couldn’t either…?
It’s the internet. He will be here shortly to tell everyone how rich he is, or just heavily suggest it.
People buy things all the time they can’t afford, it’s the American Dream.
Liberals teach people money is free, so why not.
More like the American curse.
If you hate America just say so.
So, people buying things they can’t afford isn’t the American curse? Ignoramuses persuaded by Madison Avenue and bankers giving loans to people who’s income don’t justify them is good for America?
He’s an idiot ignore him.
This makes it look cheaper then it already is. A 9,000lb piece of plastic with wheels.
I love keyboard experts. It’s painfully obvious you’ve never been next to, let alone inside and driven, one of these trucks. I have. Other than the buttons and vent housings, there’s very little plastic here.
It’s my opinion and I don’t care what you love we aren’t friends no need to share that with me.
That’s fine if it’s your opinion, but it’s false. Why have an opinion that isn’t even based in truth?
We aren’t friends it’s my opinion and I don’t need to explain anything to you. You don’t have to like it that’s not my problem that’s on you.
It’s safe to assume Issac doesn’t have many friends.
It’s safe to assume I’m not friends with any random people on this website you are correct with that observation. You would be hard pressed to find anyone on here who is friends on this forum.
It’s safe to assume Issac is slow. He missed the point that he doesn’t have many friends by deflecting to say it’s hard to make friends on a forum.
You can assume whatever you please I have no control over that. Nothing to deflect either I’ve got plenty of friends outside this forum, If you choose not to believe that fine I have no control over that either. I can only tell you I’m not friends with anyone on here.
It’s my opinion and we aren’t friends no need to share that with me… sound familiar??
And you more then entitled to it. I don’t feel the need to control what others think or say.
Ironic that Issac, who has a rule against sharing opinions with non-friends, can’t stop sharing his opinion with a non-friend.
Who said it was a rule? I said I didn’t care because we aren’t friends. You are asking me questions which I’m responding to.
Out of all my comments to you just one has a question… and it is obviously rhetorical.
Idk what you want me to tell you? I was talking to the other user then you replied to me unless it was by accident and you meant to send it to him. I never said a word about any kind of rule so idk. If you wanna talk just to talk go ahead I can’t control that, you replied to me I answered it’s simple.
Statements and rhetorical questions by definition do not require a response. But a lack of questions hasn’t stopped you from answering.
Again idk what you want me to tell you. Are you using two different user names? I was talking to the person who I tally replied to me then you decided to say something. What I said is what I said I don’t know what else to tell you.
Your turn
I figured you needed the last word.
Issac, I don’t think you understand the difference between opinions and (incorrect) facts.
EVs get the knuckle draggers out in full force.
@ G8Burnout
When did you get the chance to drive one?
It’s a part of my job
That’s bs but ok.
He has inferred he works for GM before. I assume he does.
But the flip side is I don’t think GM employs “car guys” anymore.
Thanks for paying attention, Mike. Obviously I can’t say what I do, as it puts my job in jeopardy. But I’ll let Peter believe whatever he wants, I’m not here to prove anything to random people online.
Point being, Isaac is clueless to the internals or build materials of this truck, and he wouldn’t be had he based his opinion on actual experience, as I have. Cheers.
Also, despite common perception, GM actually does employ more than a few diehard car guys right now. The company is changing for the better, slowly…you’ll see this in the coming months. Very interesting vehicles in the works.
Nobody cares bro. You’re not important.
Never claimed I was Andy, nor would I care otherwise.
You only have the position because you’re white.
Rent free.
Makes an already ridiculous looking vehicle look even worse if that were possible!
Looking sick in black. Awesome!
In addition to this Hummer , wasn’t the GMC Sierra EV supposed to have been introduced by now?, has anyone got any updates based on what I could have missed out on in relation to that truck?, it’s as if it disappeared into thin air.
Hummers are best black! Low profile tires not so much…I currently drive my 5th Hummer and I’m patiently awaiting for the SUV…
I love it ❤️
But why not a quality re-paint?
Wraps are tacky and look cheap.
Isaac and G8, you’re both a couple of losers. Take your petty comments somewhere else…lol
If I say the sky is blue, does that make me petty? Interesting.
This is amazing. I don’t think I’ve seen men going back and forth over vehicles based off facts vs opinions. I thought women were petty
Meanwhile, I will wait patiently for my call to enjoy & explore my first American made.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That’s what makes each of us important. Some think it’s fugly, some think it’s sexy. No reason to insult and degrade each other like kindergarten kids losing their favourite swing. Lighten up gents, it’s only a vehicle.
It’s not a Hummer. It’s a gm pickup with a Hummer badge. It might be a decent truck but it’s nothing like an actual Hummer. I have a 2003. You won’t see these on trails.
Nice! I can’t wait for my reservation to come up. I wish I had a chance to work on the software that’s powering this machine.
Can I get more thumbs up than thumbs down? Please. 🙂
The future is solid state…….period!!!!!
I own an Edition 1 Hummer I think what you did looks pretty Awesome. 👍
