I owned a Hummer H2 and liked it a lot. Wished a Duramax diesel had been an option so I could get 16-17mpg instead of 12.

That not withstanding, I wonder down the road how many rank-in-file Hummer fans will be wanting to hang their steel balls from the trailer hitch of a Chinese Hummer?

We should all put our grey uniform on and sing patriotic songs about our great leader while lined up to buy a new Hummer. After all, it's now a planet-saving and progress-bringing vehicle since it's owned by our sincere eastern friends.

I'll have mine in soviet red with the optional SH package (Sickle & Hammer) and a tinted windshield so I'm not blinded by the bright future ahead.

Agent63, nothing wrong with you being a Chinese-AMERICAN, nothing at all. But the Chinese pres of this company sure doesn't know about product, product planning, nor patriotic product...most Chinese cars are piss poor in qaulity, design, and passion, the first is is because the Chinese gov't has no standards for qaulity or qaulity control, the other well, use your imagination.

The main selling point of Hummer was that is a rough, In Ya Face, American design...but now, they are a symbol of wasteful-ness, environmental bullying, and because of the issues with infamous IUD's in Iraq, the H1, is know as a soft-belly...what soldier who had a friend blow up in one of those, wants to drive a civilian version?

Agent63,
If a Chinese Hummer H1 clone can fit on the road, I'm sure a rebadged Sierra/Canyon will fit.

I give Hummer 1yr max before it moves its factory to China.

Buying Hummer makes no financial sense, they don't even get the blueprints for the military spec Hummer (not that they haven't already reversed engineered it).
