keep in mind that only the h1 is really an amg.  the other two are
badge-engineered collections of parts from the gm light truck and suv
parts bins.  only gm's stake in amg allows them to be called hummers
and have the jeepy grille.

it'd be nice, but i won't hold my breath.  gm's management is famous
for its isolation from reality.

yup, with torsen diffs.
