It's crazy to think that Humvees were designed with war in Europe in mind. They are pretty wide and may have been wider if they didn't have to worry about train tunnels

Remember the times when Humvees were considered big and stupid to drive in civilian applications?

Always have been. H2s were the cybertrucks of their day

They were designed so that the wheels would be the same width as the tracks on an Abrams tank.
