24. Hummer H1
Back in the mid-1980s, the U.S. Military started using the High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), affectionately known as the Humvee. This was a big and heavy military truck capable of running over anything and surviving even land mines. But despite the fact they made 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 presented the civilian Hummer H1. It looked almost the same as the military version and it featured the same technology and engine. The power came from a 6.2-liter diesel V8 with just 165 HP, but loads of torque.

Basically, the only real difference between military and civilian Hummer was the interior. The street-legal model had a much plusher interior with air conditioning, leather upholstery, and a premium audio system. The Hummer H1 was expensive and terrible to drive so it was impractical and as big as a house. However, it was extremely popular with customers who wanted something different and opulent and didn’t care about practicality and fuel economy.
