They claim it can pull a Chinook Helicopter up the ramp of a cargo plane for transporting it to distant locations. Also run on the flat at up to 50 MPH.
There are six hydraulic motors driving six wheels in Parallel for high torque low speed and the circuit changes some motors to Series to obtain the faster travel speeds until all are in series for the highest speed lowest torque.

That's a Hyvee, not a Humvee. The Humvee is a combat vehicle and was designed to tow very little. The Humvee will be retired in a few years and replaced by the JLTV, which will use a medium duty truck chassis. The Humvee is performing a task it was never designed for. BAE, Lockeed and GD all have entrants in the JLTV competition. Unlike the Humvee, the JLTV will be designed from the beginning with armor versus the armor kits the Humvee has used.

Sorry about the wrong name chowdozer, always seem to call the HYVEE a HUMVEE by mistake.
Other than that, what about the unique little piece of equipment?
