I owned a LR D-90 when Land Rover discontinued importing them. They went up ~$5k in a very short time & kept creeping up from there. Even 10 years later, they still sell for more than the original sticker price. The latter year production in stock condition still fetch the highest price.

I imagine the H1 story will be the same. Snatch them up while you can. Lower cost used H1's will be a thing of the past very soon. If I had a dealership, I'd raise the $140k sticker priced ALPHA H1 (that I would have sold for $115k yesterday) to at least $150k today.

This is very sad. The H1 one is the sole reason for the existence of the H2 and H3

It's kind of like losing your Grandpa.

Damn...that was my absolute all time favorite vehicle...loved it from the first time I saw it...albeit, this could be a fancy pull the wool over your eyes marketing ploy....create a demand, force market prices higher, wet peoples appetites come out with a ass kicking new version of the H1. Why the heck would GM put all that cash into developing the H1 Alpha (OMG What a awsome truck), just to pull the plug on the entire line??? Well they sure will be now focusing on the H2's alot more as being their next top of the line vehicle, I've heard of the H2 Alpha being a real possibility and an H3 version not far behind. Maybe the H2's will start going back up in price!!

Hey GM guy's, stop production on the H2's! Muhahahahahahahaa!!!

The bad news is that GM will only have parts and service for 7 years after they stop production. An H1 is the kind of vehicle you would hold on to for a while, especially if the discontinue it. I would want to know about other parts/service resources before pulling the trigger to buy one now.

Personally, I think this is what we can begin to expect in the short term...

Damn! Now the Duramax versions are going to become really tough to come by.

I'm disappointed Hummer didn't keep the H1 around just for branding and nostalgia. GM is losing $ like crazy anyway.

One last photo. We'll miss you big guy!
