Is GM going to dump Hummer like the Olds brand?
Saw something on another forum that GM is having contacts with Hummer dealerships regarding settlements over thier local costs over Hummer branding and advertizing...
This could mean they may be planning something like what they did with the Oldsmobile brand...
Others argue that just because the sale of the brand failed they may simply fold it into "GMC" or other label.
I dont get any of these acts by GM

What don't you get about a company selling off that which causes it to lose money?

It's just business, nothing more, nothing less.

Poorly run business, so you're wrong about the "nothing more, nothing less" part.  |

Sorry buddy this is where we disagree.
The stakeholders control the direction of the company. Their motivation is generating profit and minimizing loss. They can "can" the CEO. Meaning nothing more nothing less.
I'm a stakeholder in a company. Hopefully assuming the position of CEO in a few short years.

And once you are CEO....free H2's for all the forum members?

I think you missed my point, because I don't see (yet) where we disagree...unless you think that GM is not being run poorly. And that was my point, and not necessarily related specifically to what their plans are for the Hummer brand. |
