You sometimes wonder where these people get their information from; their rear end. Not saying this article is totally innacurate, but the photo and the highlighted info sure is. The other information I'll leave up to you guys and gals to debate as to whether it is correct or not. I'm staying out of it.:D

I thought that people who bought Hummers did so because they wanted a vehicle that was ridiculously huge and impractical, you know, to prove how cool they are. It doesn?t make sense to me, then, that Hummer may be eyeing and even smaller version of the former military vehicle in future years.

Reports are coming out that say that GM is eyeing a new Hummer that would likely be the size of a Jeep Wrangler and would probably be called the H4. The vehicles could show up as soon as the 2009 model year. The H4 would be entering a segment that Jeep has dominated (and largely had to itself) for a long time.

That may be the biggest change coming from Hummer, but it isn?t the only move being reported. There could also be a new H3 with a V8 coming in 2007 and a GMT-900 platform for the H2 in 2010.

I was "interrogating" my dealer about changes to the H2. He said that before anything major happened to the H2, GM would come out with a Hummer smaller than the H3. :shhh:

While interrogating my dealer about possible changes to the H2, he said that most of the current effort was on a model smaller than the H3. :shhh:

I completely agree! I learn more from these forums than I do asking the dealer!
