Nick, then to you I offer my apology as well as my appreciation for your loyalty to the brand. Please be kind enough however to convey my original message to the geniuses at GM who made all this possible.

Memo to Nick Richards:

Overcoats will be standard issue in Hades before I ever buy a GM product again.

I posted the exact same comment on MT yesterday as soon as the news broke. The only thing I’m worried about, which I mentioned on MT 1 year ago is that because of the new CAFE laws and new social perspective at this point it’ll be hard pressed for someone to step forward and buy Hummer. I’m sure who ever does will getting a swinging deal for it.

Another thing I hate is if you go to sites like MT (Motortrend), Automobilemag, NYtimes, etc. every single comment bashes on Hummer. I couldn’t take reading it anymore.

“GM spokesman Nick Richards said the automaker would still hear last-minute bids for the brand. In the early phases of the wind-down, we’ll entertain offers and determine their viability, but that will have to happen in pretty short order.”

I hope this may be for the best. I was not on-board with a China company owning Hummer. Maybe one of the other bidders that was US-based will step-up now. I agree, potential H4/H5 models could really turn around Hummer. I do think that getting away from GM is the best thing. However, a smaller company needs to step-up with that same vision on a strong niche brand, and this economy does help with that.

Its really sad and a huge missed business opportunity if you ask me. Vehicles like the HX could really helped save Hummer and take it in a whole new direction. Its sad that GM was so short sighted with the brand.
