Re: AM General shuts down H2 plant
I like G.M owning it. I would hate to see ford buy it. Ford styling sucks.

Re: AM General shuts down H2 plant
Hopefully this is only temporary to save some $ for a few months. Maybe production will start again in April or May. I started saving to buy an 08 H2. I was planning on buying an 08 in two years. I want that because of the 6.2. But if they cancel the H2, prices will go higher for used ones.

Re: AM General shuts down H2 plant
Yes its a niche vehicle, I dont thnk GM can handle producing a niche vehicle anymore besides corvette. Times have changed drastically in short amount of time. I would love to see GM hang on but the sales to production dollars dont work. I believe with the HX they could turn the corner and make things happen but with this government intervention it isnt going to work.

Re: AM General shuts down H2 plant
This "what's going to happen with Hummer" has been going on since June and there's no quantitive way to gauge it, but it's been hurting Hummer sales, especially on the H3. One of the guys in the office wants an H3 badly, but he doesn't want to have a vehicle with no dealer network to support it, so he's holding off. He went through it with his Isuzu Trooper when Isuzu pulled its dealerships, and he says never again.

Re: AM General shuts down H2 plant
Do not worry about Ford owning Hummer. The 3 companies I hinted about are not American and the one I feel will end up owning it will do far more for and with the brand than GM has done. For one once these guys own it Hummer will be around for a long time. No worries about warranty being arounf etc.
