I have been a HUmmer owner for 10 years and this is a sad day for me and Iam sure for others that love the Hummer as I.

does that mean they will release the 2010's in 2009 or are the ones that just came out now the last? just curious.

Same question I asked. What I heard was the 09's will be the last Model Year. Once again GM seems to change thier minds daily but the press conference was official and top level so I imagine it is decided already.

Call your dealer, they had this announcement yesterday. It is not public yet so call it BS if you may. As soon as its announced you will see the reports. Iam not one who spreads BS. If my Business partner was not in the meeting himself I would scream BS as well. I own a HUmmer Club, Iam part of Hummer Hope and have owned 9 Hummers more than most of the people on this site. Your dealers may deny the claim however GM will announce it soon.

Still nothing on the forums/news/no publications/no tv/no news. So, what's the deal? My dealer said they closed the plant for three weeks longert thatn normal this time of the year....and they are witing for more 09's...although they have been getting other dealer's allications. I was told I could have an 09 Graystone SUT in two months with the options I wanted. #10!! ...but I'm holding out for a slightly used 08...with the options I wanted instead. It's insane to buy a 70K vehicle when someone puts 5,000 miles on it and you can get for low 40's.

Snake, the point is I had first hand information and I shared it with you all. AGAIN, I had prvied FIRST hand GM info. If I had a BS story I would of said it was BS. My point here is dont show up to a thread and place big pictures of a BS sign when you yourself dont know the truth.

BTW, High Horse is a Better Term for my Mickey Thomspsons, Thanks Ill use that when I show people my hummer :-) Ill now call it HIGH HORSE

GM DISCONTINUES HUMMER BRAND- GM

[Intercooled]

Id like to see the reports too, when they come out. It makes sense, since GM wil be recieveing that massive government loan they need to act quick with some major decisions on how they are reforming. Cutting H2 production is an easy no brainer and shows how they are reforming thier ways and are committed to being greener and more responsible.
I hate political correctness and this is disgusting.

I live very close to the factory and have friends that are in the engineering department at the H2 AMG plant.
The line is shut down, Friday was the last production day. All the parts have been used for matched sets that went through the line during this last week.
The production went down to 23 per day and almost exclusively went to export.
The infrastructure and labor costs are so high that anything under 70 units per day is in Red. There was no way to make it work, the H2's don't sell.

Thanks for your input. The nay-sayers on this site become more un-informed and spread nonsense each post. They just want pad points and have NO valid info.

[StockStar]

I'll beleive(sp) it when I see it. I expect to see Hummers through 2011.

Look:

Paris Hiltons House was broken into which didnt affect anyone, but we knew about it asap.

GM stops production of its creme de la creme of SUV's, and............. nothing solid posted anywhere. sorry!!!

[Dave92270]

well that gives me very strong argument to buy one before they're gone.. sad news though
