Is now the right time to buy an H3?

[agp]

So I've been hearing a lot about GM discontinuing Hummers, and I remember reading something on the Wallstreet Journal that Hummers are now being sold at 50% the price. Can anyone confirm if anyone of the above is true? And would now be a good time to get a used or new Hummer? Any inputs are welcome. Cheers

currently there are very good deals on '08 models; I wouldn't say 50% off but for instance $40k (listed MSRP/window sticker) H3 is being offered by my local dealer for $28k from March 19th-22nd. There is $7k factory rebate and $5k dealership discount.. I have hard time to find any H2's though, they seem to be sold out

Is that for a new or certified pre-owned H3? Is there any possibility I can get a decent deal on an H3 with $10,000?

factory rebates apply to new vehicles only and mainly to '08 models (there may be some discounts on '09's but not as big ); I don't think that you can buy any Hummer regardless the year or model for $10k.

He could get a Hummer for 10k. One with no engine, no transmission and no tires. LOL. sorry, had to.

You will need to save more to start. Here is a used one on flea bay for 16,500...
