note: I have no problem with the Chinese buying Hummer; I have a big problem with the forced sale and what has to be a ridiculously low price.

Note:No one is buying the damn things, they have them marked down 50%.

I'd say the Chinese are buying the equipment and tools, I doubt it will build a hummer.

oy. You can cut the word “hummer” out and insert any other American asset. That’ll help you get my point.

I’m sure our service men will be thrilled, to soon be riding around in a shiney new ChiCom vehicle.
I’m sure the Chinese will be able to come up with a stealth device, to locate each of ‘their’ vehicles, in time of war.

Stupid short-sightedness of the American auto manufacturer... may they rot in a Chinese hell-hole.

Listen real good, I heard Rush today and he got this all screwed up. The company that builds the military hummer still builds that vehicle.

When they first started selling the civilian version it came off of the military lines. They sold the production rights to the civilian hummer to general motors Now Government Motors. Who then bastardized it by putting a hummer style body on a suburban frame, pan. Another screw the public moment by GM.

Should have added that the united states military will stop buying them shortly. Going to a better force protection vehicle.

The US military has never purchased the Hummer and GM has never produced the Humvee (which the military continues to purchase.
