“GM announced a major reaction to this shift earlier in June, saying it will shutter four truck and SUV plants by 2010, and potentially shed a Hummer division that is closely associated with gas guzzlers. Recently, GM killed plans for the next-generation H3, a relatively-fuel efficient SUV that had been popular among U.S. buyers, and shelved plans for a sporty H4 that would have competed with the Jeep Wrangler.”

Brutal. If this is true, it means one two things to me:
1.) Hummer is dead. You don’t shelve your “smaller” concept and axe your most fuel efficient model when the problem is gas prices, unless you are shutting down.

2.) Hummer has 1 or 2 concepts that we haven’t seen yet that are even more efficient. God, I hope we don’t see a Hummer “Compass” like Jeep.
