The rear end is subdued compared to the rest of the truck, with a Hummer-stamped rear bumper cover and lots of square corners. The SUT version gets the outside spare as an identifier.

Both the SUV and SUT are four-door models.

You can plug in the optional Warn winch at either end because the H2 comes with hitch receivers and wiring looms on both front and rear. Both receivers accommodate a regular Class-III trailer hitch, providing flexibility for such tasks as pulling a boat out of the water or backing a trailer into a tight spot. Large, military-style retrieval loops are on the back bumper and twin tow loops are on the front.

The SUT has short overhangs for radical approach and departure angles, but not as short at the rear because the spare tire has been moved outside and the spare tire rack also adds length at the rear, slightly compromising its off-road performance on the same wheelbase as the SUV, but offering a great deal more interior room. With the spare tire carrier and spare tire on the back, the SUT version has an additional set of taillamps set in the rear bumper in order to meet federal regulations. Not surprisingly, the outside spare tire carrier is now an option on the SUV version to open up more interior space.

H2 is 81.5 inches wide, 1.5 inches over the legal limit for clearance lights, so it comes with five lights on the roof fore and aft to comply with federal law. Its big, square, chromed mirrors don't make much noise at highway cruising speeds, which we appreciated. They also have heat, reverse-down, and a power fold feature that protects the mirrors off-road and narrows the truck's width for traversing narrow spaces.
