It's not over till the fat lady sings

The never ending drama! I believe both governments want SUV's to fail and will push for thier failure. We are slowly turning into Americoms. No matter how good the technology can be to increase fuel efficiency in SUV's there will be a push towards little egg cars.

Went to St. Louis yesterday to get some labs done and stopped by Lynch on my way in. They are saying the same thing, that Hummer will be sold, but the "memorandum" with the Chinese is far from a done deal.

I kinda hope the Chicoms dont get it. I'd like for everything to stay here. Wonder who the other bidders were.

The Chinese co. will not build the Hummers. Everything will still be built in USA. If non USA co. buys the labor will have to renegotiate which is the area it plans to make Hummer profitable and work on lowering the price of the rides to consumers. They will also go with, as I mentioned in another thread, a very stripped down model for sell to 3rd world companies or basicly in markets that really need Hummers like HX to really use to work them everyday in tough terrain. I too wish and hope AM General could buy the brand. I'm sure they are trying to figure a way to do it since they will begin to have H1 sells to Gov. drop because gov. has had better patrol rides developed due to IED's.
AM General will most likely need a new income stream other than just trying to build H1's for public purchase again.

The chinese company from the info I can get off radar is floating in excess cash to invest and they love as well respect the prestige of Hummer any model. These guys have not developed the rep. of selling highly prized heavy equip. built with quality and price to compete or beat any company. They stand behind the products as well. They will not buy Hummer to run it into the ground. I have heard that there could be a chance that AM General may be asked by Chinese to take a % of new company so there will be management to look after the investment before ink dries on signed agreements. This move would be the smartest move that they could make since it would lend a greater air of legit having AM General involved.

Well I have my 05 with second row OEM captains (not cheap aftermarket do not match front seats), upgraded electronics even more than 2010's, and many other things thought about, built by Us, and installed running before Hummer ever got to it. So I will not be buying new soon when we can buy and convert older H2's low miles for less the buying new. But, really we just like to make them look and perform the way we like so no worries about warranty.

I just hope Hummers keep being built somehow.

If Hummer is only worth 500 Million (As stated above), im really surprised there arent alot more bidders.

Not that I have 500 mil, but man think about it. The whole Hummer brand is the cost of of two new 747 jets.

Seems a bit low???
