Well they must be talking about some other vehicle then...not the H3. ;)

Seriously though, I think the local dealers wil be beggin yo to buy it fromthem then....meaning they might give up a lot in incentives to make it worthwhile.

Push the button of power and have them add on everything possible and not charge you for it. :D

I agree that you will see a lot of dealerships attempting to swallow the tax on this. Sure, you're still "paying" the tax and other vehicles essentially cost less, but at least the final cost won't change much. If someone really wants a vehicle -- and most Hummer owners are pretty fanatical about the vehicle -- they'll do it, tax or not.
