Wonderful, GM will become the "car-appliance" company, building little non-descript transportation machines for the ignorant masses. Love it or hate it, Hummer did what Saturn never could, give GM a division that everyone recognizes. Keep the brand, expand the offerings, killing it off would be brain-dead mismanagement, like handing Ford the police cruiser market in 1997.

As a former GM employee, I was never impressed with Rick Wagoner and I don't understand why he's lasted so long. The board should hand the company over to Lutz for a couple of years so he can clean house and put GMback in the black!

I think the quote, from what I can tell, was they're going to conduct a 'strategic rethink' and selling was one option. I should have more info soon...

 

Give GM a chance and they will do the wrong thing. I guess killing off the Corvette would be next on the agenda. GM, got any other best in the world products you want to quit making? Let us know Brian.

 

They will turn over their GMC line of trucks to Hyundai

 

GM sold their stake in Isuzu (Duramax) to Toyota, I hope they don't sell them Hummer!

 

They say we are not making money. i say bs. I am seeing more H3's out on the street now than i ever have. I beleive the pricing is such that people are starting to see that these really do cost less that the loaded silverados,suburban's and the comparable ford & dodges. It's all about the mighty dollar.

 

does that mean the HUMMER academy is closing also?

 

Doubtful, they still have H1 training there - and their facility also handles military Humvee training. The academy is run by AMGeneral, and isindependent of GM.

 

I'm glad I got one before toyota screws it all up
