Just curious, if you had the choice and more importantly the money, would you buy an H1 or MXT. I'm in between and if my Lottery numbers come in I'm gonna get one of them.

IF I had your money and lived in Hawaii, it would be a U1300L Unimog with ultra high speed axles and a diesel engine, a much better truck then either of your other choices and much,much cheaper used. The Unimog in any form will out climb and outhaul either of your choices and is a much more understated machismo mobile (and a better chick magnet then either). I'd try the Unimog before I bought either of the above, and you'll have change left over for other cool toys.
Just my
worth, nothing persional in the advice....

Hi1 or MXT
Well I'm sort of partial to a HMMWV so I'd have to say the H1 and bolt on a HMMWV body.
To me that black thing is nasty.
I guess it depends on what your planning on doing with it.
If your looking for a daily driver or for weekends and special events.
The H1 will be a nicer smoother quieter ride than the HMMWV but you can change the body on it to almost any HMMWV configuration.
Did I say that shiny black thing is ugly looking because its really MAFUGLY.
Of course beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

Oh and by the way thanks for your past service to this country

I love the Mog. I would still vote hands down on the H1. The black thing is a waste. You take it any where and get it dirty youll want to have it repainted. Plus I like to be able to get into my trucks with out a step ladder and I am 6` tall. Haha and parking it is a B!tcH. You cant turn it around in a football feild.

When I first saw the MXT driving down the Hi-way I thought it was a new H1. It sure is ugly in pictures, but looks awesome running down the road.

I had (still have for now) an M1026 - and if I was going to go after another vehicle it would be a hard choice if those were the only two available. For brute toughness, another HMMWV (not and H1) - for bad-ass factor in a civilian street vehicle - the MXT.
You know you can actually create a poll, right?

The black one looks like it will dent and scratch too easily plus I'm not big on chrome. I vote the Unimog #1 - H1 #2 (my step dad had an H1 and it got keyed quite a few times - lota haters out there).

! Lol the HMMWV and UNIMOG take the top of the poll. The MXT while cool lacks a few things, like where am i going to park it. Haha most H1 will fit in a standered carport but you cant open the doors lol. The MXT um let see, watch out for trees, low power lines, and low bridges. I would drive any of them. I got to pick on it, it looks like Optimise Prime as a Dad. I would venture to say someone on the dtreet would swear if you painted it desert tan it was an MRAP.
