My mom works at the Hummer factories where they make the Humvee's or H1's and the H2's. And my step dad is a trainer at the Chippewa Testing Facility. The H1's for military use are plain jane and made to whatever specs specified in the gov't order. The H1's for commercial use have razzled up interiors for operator comfort but are identical to the military H1's with the exception of the armor and other military like items and without the camoflauge paint scheme. Also the commercial H1's are now available with the 6.6K Duramax Diesel as opposed to the 6.5L. As far as I know you may be able to get a surplus military humvee but all the fun goodies are taken off or rendered unusable, I mean who wants some crazy to get their hands on a serious off-road vehicle with a huge gun on top of it, not me. So either you saw a surplus humvee or a commercial painted like a military vehicle.
