Regardless of how today’s insane gas prices have left the Hummer an endangered species of SUV, it seems as though some engineers are focused on reinventing the 4 x 4. This tank-like twist on the original gas guzzler crawled into the 2008 SEMA auto show in Las Vegas, and immediately turned heads.

Similar to the all-terrain rubber tracks on snowmobiles, this concept H2T seems to apply the tire-to-tread conversion system (usually called Mattracks) that is commonly seen in off-road vehicles. Sure there’s no real improvement to the vehicle’s speed, but if you’re looking to push the truck that has the biggest balls on the road, keep tabs on the production of this beast. See more photos of the crawler below.
