Does your pride in ownership change with Hummer becoming a Chinese company?
 
Now that Hummer has been sold to a Chinese company...Does it change your pride/image towards the Hummer brand? Sorry for this touchy question.
I am a big Jeep fan. I own two (owned three total) Jeeps and would be really, really, really ticked off if Chrysler sold Jeep to any non-American company! I am not sure if I would hold onto my Jeeps as a couple of the last American Jeeps or if I would sell them off as I would not want to associate with the brand anymore?

Nope, not a negative for me all!

Since Jeep is now Italian and Land Rover is Indian, it seems only natural that Hummer should be foreign owned as well. Google around a bit and look at the awesome Buicks that China is building for their home market. I wish we could get our hands on some of those models here!

The only thing that irks me is that the USA is not in the position to buy a penny of China's debt while they can afford buy $ trillions of ours! LOL

Nope!

Not at all. I bought mine from an American company. The Chinese purchase will save the brand and jobs associated with it. Marketing will be key.

Also not at all! maybe now some money will be pumped into the Hummer badge. Obviously GM gave up on Hummer months ago.

El NOPE!!!!

I hope they pour a ton of money into the brand and Hummer kicks ass again. I love my H2

No way! I have had six different Hummer's over the years, I cant wait to see how far the new owners can take the brand.

Hate to break the bad news to you, but your '03 Rubi was built by Daimler Chrysler, German owned company. (Daimler Benz) How cheap do you want to sell it to me? :D

Nope, does not have any effect on me, hope they KICK ASS with the brand. Love my H2.
