SOCOM wanted and got the LR110 (actually they wanted their old M551 flat-fendered Jeeps) but thats because their mission requirements were different than the rest of the general military. For the most part, the HMMWV does well for its duties of a multirole/multifunction fast recon and light support vehicle. There are many things that an LR110 can do better than a HMMWV but the opposite is also true.
