27. Hummer H1

Back in the mid-80s, the U.S. Military started using the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), affectionately known as the “Humvee.” It was a big, heavy military truck capable of running over anything, even land mines. Although they built the Humvee for the military, constant requests for a street-legal version made AM General think about entering the lucrative civilian market.

So finally in 1992, they introduced the civilian Hummer H1. It looked almost the same as the military version featuring the same technology and engine. The power came from a 6.2-liter diesel V8 with just 165 HP and loads of torque. Basically the only real difference between military and civilian Hummer was the interior.
The street-legal model had a plusher interior with air conditioning, leather upholstery, and a premium audio system. The H1 is incredibly durable and able to survive on the battlefield, which makes it the perfect crisis vehicle.
