[HummerJim]

Had a good chat Wednesday with some people at the Hummer dealership in MO. I consider myself lucky to live so close to this dealership, however the proximity was one of the major factors in my buying two Hummers from them. The person I talked to at Lynch said they sold Hummers for AM General before GM bought the brand (H1s), have a large inventory of new and used 1s 2s and 3s and intend on staying in the Hummer business regardless of what GM decides even if it's selling used ones. I'd hate to see the H3 go by the wayside, because the 2009 is refined in so many little ways over the 2006 and I like the Captains seating and flex fuel engine on the new H2. I take some comfort in the Hummer future because the product has improved so much, gas is coming down in price, and the vehicle has a large following (there's still hope someone else might buy the brand)- what GM does with it is out of my control.
