Familiar Cap?

[bbjsw10]

I seen a Hummer H3T commercial the other day and noticed the cap on it. Reminds me or the "Aerocap" on the F-150 floating around on here.

haha that is so ugly! With the boat on top, and the massive amount of stuff sticking out into the airflow, it's a shame they're using this as the first mass produced vehicle with an aero cap.

Talk about putting lipstick on a pig.

That cap looks alot like the F-150 cap Bondo came up with. Bondo did say he was in "talks" with a manufacturer about mass production of the aerocap...but that was only a week ago in the thread. He refers to the "talks" with the manufacturer on the 10-17-08 post.

Here's the thread...

I remember some Army Hummers with the same angle quite a while back.

I forgot about these! I do wonder though, if these vehicles actually attain attached flow on these parts. It seems as if the whole vehicle could be in detached flow area.

No no, I know the real deal has them, I meant the brand. I thought GM had basically discontinued them.

But gas prices are down, clearly people still have a need for a $75,000 monster truck to never take off their suburban pavement?

If I have some down time at work I wanna see what kind of aero hummer I can come up with... Might go from 10-15 mpg too
