I was told that the hulking beast that we were drooling all over that was parked beside the 2 man "Snake" in the garage at AM General was one of the prototype versions of the BRV-OImage

The "released" brav-o is significantly different to the one in the garage, the one at AMG looked to of been a striped down version. Probably a un-armoured variant <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... rgreen.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':mrgreen:' />

It was also a 2 door pickup version.

No just a small display area, none in production areas etc.
