HMMWVs What does this acronym stand for?

• HWR_14 5y ago
  It's the military term for Humvee - the huge vehicle that was popular for a while when gas was cheap. Or rather "hum vee" is how it is pronounced and the civilians spelled it phonetically.

    "Hummer" was the brand name of the consumer version: https://youtu.be/GEMRkQmh9WI https://youtu.be/GEMRkQmh9WI

      I originally wrote hummer, but I thought that was a slang term. Thanks
