A Chinese company is buying Hummer! Will we now be able to buy a Hummer at Walmart (AKA evil empire) with all the other Chinese made garbage?

Yeah, who knows what will really become of the Brand now. I personally was hoping that Razor would be able to pick them up but who knows what the Asians will do with them. We know many of the Asian companies make a quality product ie toyota, suzuki, and Daewoo. Now I know your saying what Daewoo look at their military vehicles you will be amazed. Just like Obama coming to office I do not like the sale of this American product going foreign but can only hope that it turns out better than my expectations.

We should have traded the Hummer brand for some of the billions in debt that we owe China... :ugh: At least make some headway on our deficit.

If they'd have waited a little bit, the government could have owned Hummer and done just that, Greg. :D

Real shame. Chinese H1's. :( That's insulting, too, the Red Army can have our military vehicles??? come on!

Your painting with a big brush. Asia is a big region, to compare the manufacturing, innovation and engineering of Japan to say China is like comparing 4-wheeling in Moab with Wendover based on their regional proximity. Very, very different.

Hummer was making the H1's though, so they'll have the basic framework. :(

!!! unless..... they separated that out when they cancelled the H1 in the US!! :D that would be cool.

They'll have the framework of a yukon w/ a plastic hummer body...

Would that make it a larger, IFS-er version of this?

Just think of owning a vehicle with the construction and quality of a Pep Boy's Honda knock-off ;) Its easy to see why they havn't gone very far towards gaining a share of the auto market. By buying legit companies with engineering backgrounds and potentially a force of designers, engineers and assemblers, they have the tools to change that.
