Detailed auction info is avail online (free). I believe it even shows what each bid cycle is from low to win.

If you ever seriously start looking shoot me a DM. There are some specific 'tiers' you want to focus on. But depending on which engine/trans combo and overall condition I have seen them go from under $10k to over $50k - raw from auction. One of the first things you'll learn if you ever start looking is that while anyone can buy from these auctions, you need gov clearance that can take months and months to get before you can pick up whatever you end up buying.

There are some great videos out there re your mention of seeing one years ago. The civilian H1 vs mil spec HMMWV is an interesting chat. I looked fairly close at H1s before going forward with the mil surplus option. But I digress - that's another whole thread. I will say imo, sans a bunch of excess 90s plastic and carpet, my mil spec one is one in the same. That is a very divisive opinion though - to each their own!

Re videos - this is long for today's attention spans and low quality but friggin' awesome! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZG5...6Ys32&index=10




That's awesome they were out at c&c !

Heat - yes

AC - no

AC is easy enough to add. About $4k for the correct system and then depending on diy ability the install labor.
That's awesome. As for me, it's more about curiosity on something I know literally nothing about. I don't see myself owning one, but no doubt I'll always respect the hell out of them. There was a guy that brought one to work and I parked my 2016 Tundra Crewcab next to him. Made mine look like a Corolla!
