You know what the difference between a porcupine and a Hummer is?
(Also applied to the Escalade).

the key will be quickly rolling out more fuel-efficient models that get over 20 mpg.

The aluminum foil, 40mpg version will be debuted as the “Bummer”. Included is a spare engine to be replaced after 30K miles.

But they weren’t made in China. Cheap steal, cheap engines. I give them a year.

I don’t know if Hummers will still be available a year from now, but I guarantee those Michigan plants will be empty, abandoned shells by then.

One of the callers to Rush Hudson Limbaughs (MMM MMM MMM) show today had something to say about this...
he was a small business owner and as such had cause to visit his local bank on a daily basis, or words to that effect...
at any rate, the bank has a spot that they decided to set aside and advertise with a sign...
"This spot for hybrid vehicles"...
anyway, long story, short...
he always aims to park his H2 Hummer in that spot!!

Weren’t the Hummers originally designed and built for our Military to replace the venerable Jeeps? It was only later that GM started making a model for the consumer market. Where are we going to be buying our military transportation vehicles and parts for them? From a potential future enemy???

The dirty ChiNazi communists are buying the spirits of America, iconic sypmbols of America, just like Japan did in the 80’s. We should protect our icons from these dirty ChiNazis. This is an invasion of American culture! Defend our culture!

Would the type of customer who bought a Hummer not be likely to boycott China because is China?
