As part of the deal, some GM plants will continue to build the Hummer brand for the new owner, at least for awhile. The company said its Shreveport, La., plant will keep building Hummers for the new owner until at least 2010. All jobs, plants and equipment will eventually go to China. The UAW will demand payment from Obama for their pensions and full salaries for their new jobs as union thugs voter outreach...

I wonder if GM asked to be paid by the Chinese in Dollars or Chinese currency?

Aren’t Hummers used as U.S. military vehicles? Is this something we want to move off shore? The Chinese already make ALL our boots! Someone had better wake up.

Didn’t the Chinese start producing a Hummer knockoff a while back?

Yang said the deal "will allow Hummer to better meet demand for new products such as more fuel-efficient vehicles in the U.S." I'm guessing that this means a even smaller model (H4?), with a Chinese knock-off of an Isuzu 4-cylinder powertrain. And an interior that smells like the Harbor Freight store.
I'll pass.

I’m sure most of US operations will stay in the US. What will likely happen, though, is that the new owners will duplicate facilities in China.

Even the Chinese will still have to obey Obama's new CAFE milage increases, so the new Chinese Hummers will look more like this:
