I think GM had little to do with the "sale" Let's face it guys... if the china guys get it, we are not going to see an updated H2, they are going to buy the name and maybe keep the H3 around for a while, did you notice that in all of the hype, there is little or no mention of H2 product?

And this could well happen. But why would someone spend the money and not utilize the brand and all of its potential to its fullest extent? You do realize that Hummer was well on its way to bringing out a revamped H2, right? And the HX is pretty much ready to take the last step towards production. Plus, there's a couple of other things in the bag too. Whomever buys the rights to Hummer would be wise to make the most of everything available. Also, moving production out of the U.S. would effectively kill the Hummer's largest market. The rest of the world isn't going to buy a Chinese "Hummer" either. I'm betting the tentative buyer is well aware of this.
