Looks like GM is selling off Hummer to the Chinese, and maybe in 30
days or less.


And good riddance. * Too bad about Saturn though, probably the best
car that GM ever made.


So is the US military going to buy Chinese hummers now? or are they
switching to something else?

I haven't kept up on that stuff.

Humvees are manufactured by AM General, an American company.
