Yep. Here's the standard HUMMV. this is known as the Cut-V, since it has no back, and it's soft-shelled:

Standard Hard-shell Military HUMMV (Marine HUMMV, but best pic I could find. You can tell it's marine from the A) jarhead sitting in it happy: and B) The anphibious tailpipe, for when driving through high waters:

And, the armored HUMMV. It's hard to tell, but this HUMMV is more fortified, top, sides, and bottom. The turret hatch sticks up, for chest protection, and the doors and windows are bulletproof. Still, this armor is rarely used:
