Hummer would be a better investment than US Treasury Notes for China.

What's the difference between a porcupine and a civilian Hummer?

A porcupine has pricks on the outside.

(Note: Said joke also applies to Escalades).

My only hope in all this is that Saturn would be spun off to the dealers and set up as an independent non-union US auto company. In 15 years it would have reclaimed much of GM’s lost market share and prove that non-Union Americans are the most production humans on the planet.

Since the American citizens own GM; we should know who we sold Hummer to.

I’m thinking it could be one of those rich guys out of Dubai. They love the Hummer vehicles, and it could be a natural fit.

I wonder what the scam is and why they are hiding it. Which of obama's favorites is getting all the Hummer assets and none of the liabilities at a bargain price?

In any case, I won't be buying any GM brands, whether or not they are sold to other companies. I want GM not only merely dead. I want GM most sincerely dead. 100% dead, no exceptions, no forgiveness. I am boycotting Hummer, GM, Chrysler, Chevrolet, Saturn, and all the other Bailout nameplates forever. I hope that even with what was probably a crooked deal, the buyer loses big on Hummer.

Since WE own GM, and WE sold the Hummer Division, why can’t WE know who the hell bought it from US?

“I’m confident that Hummer will thrive globally under its new ownership,” said Troy Clarke, president of GM North America”

New name = “oBummer”?

Heard the other day that the Penske group was interested. Can you imagine, a Hummer built like an Indy car (or vice versa)? :-)
