I bought a Ridiculous H1 Hummer to Daily Drive but did I Over Pay? - Flipping $400 to a Ferrari

While I was down at a dealer auction in Florida I ended up buying a 1994 Hummer H1 and it is far cooler than I ever thought it would be.

Never trust a man that orders an egg wrap with no cheese that's diabolical... 😂

[@FlyingWheels]

best comment :)

[@charlieb308]

I’m allergic to cheese and dairy

[@ryanjohnson8821]

The only way to redeem yourself is by adding extra bacon 😂

[@sethmargadonna502]

I am with Craig - no cheese!!!!

[@igorkoske8376]

Craig you did good. This H1 soft top can bring $65k on the low end and upwards of -$75k+ all day long if it’s under 50k miles. I’m a dealer principal for exotic and luxury dealer group in New England and also CarEdge/YAA member and I also owned GM dealerships that use to sell new Hummers all the way to mid 2000’s. I have lots of experience with Hummers and I know and understand current Hummer H1 market. You did good.

[@jaggsta]

45k for H1 in that condition is a steal you can easily make nice profit on that.

[@joshwilkes8853]

I bought a 1995 H1 open top from Orlando Auto Auction back in 2001 and drove it back to South Carolina.....longest drive of my life lol

[@dictator97]

Never was a fan of Hummers, but I have to admit, this one is awesome, especially the color!

[@MrSizewise]

You’ll always remember your 1st hummer

[@DMoney505]

😆

[@kennethcarr2449]

😅😅😂

[@aaronsautoshop1991]

Search the vin, & you will see the wild history of it, from sema to current day. This h1 was basically frame off restored a few years back including a new engine. Congrats on the Steal! 😂 it’s a money maker

[@cj5trackerat]

Your wife does awesome car reviews. So far she's right on the money this thing's like driving a Mack truck !

[@johnalan6067]

makes me sad to see these pristine cars sent up north to end up in a pile of rust :(

[@patrick2115]

This is probably something people arnt going to buy to drive in the winter it’s more of a toy. It’s a practical wenter vehicle but it would destroy it so being more of a collector car id like to think it would be a garage queen in the winter

[@ThePatrikable]

So northern habitats should not be allowed toys due to snow? What a stupid comment

[@robhersey1796]

I live in the north and drive a shitty rusty 4wd disposable beater in the winter. I have 4 toys that only see summer. This is what happens to a lot of these.

[@Karo2992-]

Amazing video! Love that your family is part of your experiences with the cars you love to buy.

[@wyattguild3638]

Holy crap, those H1’s are going for around 150-300k up here in Alberta

[@jamesmanning4346]

2006 Alpha’s

[@toomanymodz]

Craig, the middle conceals the drivetrain. If you look under the Hummer you will see the high ground clearance due to the drivetrain being shoved up into the cab.

[@jamesstephenson4544]

Exactly they are hard to get stuck for damned sure. I remember driving around Hohenfels in one. It had rained hard the day before and we were in 2 feet of mud and my Cpt says hey can we stop here? I look and say "Sir, if we stop here we are not getting out, let me get to some dry ground".

[@johnschmidt7126]

Down to Earth!!!! I always knew you were a real one and you knowing that movie proves it!!!

[@machintelligence]

Never a dull moment.

[@ronaldwarren5220]

I drove one during Desert Storm. I found it odd that there was no "Park" position on the gear shift. It is a beast in the desert sand though.

[@WaltergswBatres]

Gone in 60 seconds!!!! DMZ blasting 😂

[@Fony_turgeson]

ummmm noo

[@WayApp]

Congratulations on your purchase of the H1 Hummer!

[@toddp.226]

I drove my buddies H1 after the bar because he was too drunk to drive. We immediately had a cop right on our azz and I had been drinking as well. The H1 takes up the entire lane and I managed to keep it inside the lines as I could tell the cop was just waiting for me to cross the line on either side. I managed to make it to our exit and the cop still followed me. After about 3 miles off the exit he gave up and turned away. I mean, he literally rode my azz and I thought I was done for. He drove about 5 feet from my rear bumper just waiting for a reason to pull me over. Thankfully I didn't panic or make a mistake. My buddy was literally puking in the passenger floor board while I was being tailed by the police at 2am. I thank my lucky stars for that blessing! It's a fun car that gets attention, but so, so not practical. You can't park it anywhere normal. Just a fun toy if you are wealthy.

[@mf8759]

Such a sweet hummer! One of the best colors and it looks to be in GREAT condition! Wouldn’t mind of those for the winters here! 😍

[@harrywright5793]

Really nice to hear you using please and thank you in the drive through. I find that so many Americans are rude to servers, just saying “I’ll get….” or worse “Get me…..” like they’re talking to piece of trash. Doing a less skilled job doesn’t make you less of a person. Manners and respect cost nothing. It says a lot about the person, and you set a great example to your son. Love your videos, thanks for keeping me regularly entertained for free! 👍

[@jimshoe402]

If u go to like Nashville u get Sir, Thank You, Yes I can help u or a free ride to airport. Dam Yankees

[@Joeshomegarage]

Now I see why the Hummer Dealership near me has been abandoned for years! LOL

[@T_Barrington]

my knees hurt just watching your boy get into the big hummer.. lololol what a great score!

[@hancockak47]

Thanks Craig, I used to flip cars and the wife and kids got made when I sold one that the liked.

[@droopythebeagle2783]

Great color. My favorite color. Like my glasses. Enjoy it. One of my favorite vehicles. 👍

[@Luke22022]

It's fun to see you so excited about a vehicle. I like the color.

[@VituMV]

That DMX reference was legit.

[@sullyFL]

The central tire inflation systems aren't very reliable, so they usually got removed.

[@JS-zb1vv]

The red ones was a body kit for a late 80s early 90s k2500 surbaban . I think they were call gorillas . I can’t remember. A couple of people had them I knew .

The next episode of Flying Wheels…Ferrari flip money buys really good divorce lawyer…🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@marcvivori1561]

Unfortunately I have much knowledge of the H1’s. My Division of a large insurer underwrote the Hummer Warranty program. Never, ever ever buy an H1 before the 1997 1/2 model year. 97 1/2 is when Hummer had fixed most of the problems. Most but not all as that engine was famous for the Block cracking. My first Hummer was a 96 and when I got rid of it after Warranty Claims for both the Engine and Transmission along with Paint and everything else you can imagine that my friends at Hummer covered under warranty for me. It had 7 pages of warranty claims totaling $42,000!!!! DON’T DAILY DRIVE IT, IT’S NOT WORTH THE RISK. DON’T LET ANYONE TEST DRIVE IT UNLESS YOU GO WITH THEM AND THEY ARE QUALIFIED TO BUY!!! When they aren’t broken they are amazing what they can do and where they can go. I spent a day at their training course, obstacle course, mud bog, and torture “track” and it is amazing. The civilian version, which you have, is built on a parallel assembly line and the only differences between civilian and military Hummers are mil spec connectors for the mil version and the civilian unit has A/C, nicer interior, insulation and a decent paint job. If they would only not break down. Oh, it’s not a Detroit Diesel, it’s a GM 6.2bi believe. It’s been a long time and I 70 now so some things are fuzzy but not how bad they can break. However, my 18 yr old son put it in some places only goats had seen before and when we thought it would take a heavy lift helicopter to extract it somehow he would get it out. Of course the 12k lb. Winch helped. Sell it, don’t drive it.

[@WildDigger]

I think you got a great deal. You can tune it and up the boost on that. It has some great potential. 👍

[@inquisitive980]

Look on the bright side. You did not buy a boat.

[@robertclubs9908]

Awesome show

[@drscottbecker3615]

I subscribed! Have a 2003 Hummer H2 daily driver. LOVE all 360k miles. Got him new. I'll be buried in it. Really! 🙂

[@MarcosSilva-kd3kz]

Hey Craig, great video!!! Can you tell me what the name of the transportation company you used? And do you recommend them? I need to move a large vehicle from New York to Florida. Thanks.

[@CheesusSVT]

What a sweet set of wheels 😋🤟🔥🔥

[@johnhamilton9229]

I’ve wanted one since I was 18 yrs old, 53 now and I still want one. As you said a few times, It’s not practical.

[@andrewng6988]

great stuff thanks

[@CdotForbes13]

Exit Wounds was a great movie, also just remember you only live once. If you win or lose it's still a journey

[@michaelsalah996]

Movie in reference is "Down To Earth" haha very underrated flick that i haven't seen in forever

[@charlieb308]

I think that is so cool, love the blue!

[@deborahlundy6892]

I love that hummer especially the color. Blue is my favorite color

[@jimrodriguez7640]

That thing is pretty awesome! I think you got a hell of a deal! As for the DMX reference I think you got confused with Exit Wounds where DMX drives in an H1 or in Gone in 60 Seconds when DMX is playing when they steal the H1

[@dudeman9155]

He's talking about Down to Earth, where Chris Rock dies and comes back to life as an old rich white guy.

[@LastHumansGarage]

that truck is beautiful man. i would never want one.. but its awesome..

[@bobbywells8408]

Sounds great

[@Quickslver99]

With ebay you can't go based on listing prices you have to look at sold listings. That being said looks like one sold for 70k so wouldn't be surprised that you get at least 60k for that tank. Nice looking hummer tho.

[@igotaction]

Gone in 60 Seconds DMX playing when they steal the H1 with the python in it

[@obadel5092]

Yup the song goes perfect to that Hummer.

[@christopherhindle8371]

Great purchase, great investment, just wish you didn't have to take it to a place where it's exposed to winter, possibly salt on the roads.

[@tryngetme12ps4]

If you put a duramax and a allison transmission in it itll be worth more because they cant get out of there own way factory probably get closer to 100k

[@freebirdskoolieofficial8163]

Love Down to Earth. Such a classic

[@paulzeski6251]

Perfect color for putting on your shiniest suit and going out for a night at the Roxbury.

[@jeffspencer1437]

Down to earth

[@darrylnewton9010]

that piece in the middle is called the " dog house" it gives you access to the back of the engine and transmission.

[@jeffomalley6015]

The center is so high because of the portal axles sit up high for ground clearance.

[@chrissiano381]

Your a pratical dude.. You have a topdon scanner. I have one to, Artidiag 800BT. I do not need any of those special function ones.. This one does just fine.

You won't lose money on that, I see ones local uglier than that for $65k all day

Men, just wanna ask if youre being sarcastic?

[@wesleyfindley1779]

@@mariodelacruz3089 it’s an h1. Those are 70k+ here ALL day. Some sell for 100k+. This was a good deal. He could list it tomorrow and sell it for 70 or 80 in a day or two.

[@bmernka1723]

Most h1s selling over 50k have the 6.6 duramax this one dont, but everything is worth different amounts in different states

[@mwyatt222]

l know someone that bought one brand new in the early 90's. lt was literally broke down more than it was running. He finally turned it in under the lemon law. When he took it to the dealer there was another one being returned that same day. He still claims it was the worst vehicle he ever owned and he buys and sells cars in multiples as a broker.

You gotta be a 90s kid...we love the same exact cars :)

[@gjermundification]

7:40 You will most likely learn what the term miniature parking means. Having a Toyota IQ D4D as my daily driver means I have first hand experience from both worlds, those lines in the parking lot are simply not made for a H1 - At least here in Europe.

[@timaging]

OK now that I see the interior, there is not much for OEM parts in there which is why you got such a good price. Also, mine was my daily driver for over 20 years.
