Cheering just about every other driver on the road, General Motors Corp. yesterday said it was ditching the H1 by June. The vehicle, which delivered a shot of in-your-face masculinity, has a price tag of $140,000, weighs 5 tons and gets less than 10 miles to the gallon. But sales have slowed to a trickle. GM has sold fewer than 100 this year. Many see the H1 as a symbol of personal excess and American over-consumption. The H1 has been the target of at least a half-dozen attacks by radical environmentalists, and the Web site FUH2.com has posted photos of thousands of people giving the H1 the center-finger salute. "It's the ultimate statement of outrageous excess," says automotive consultant Daniel Gorrell of Strategic Visions in San Diego. "It's the statement of 'I will run over you and crush you like a bug.' " GM has steadily expanded the Hummer line but shrunk the models' size. In 2002, GM introduced the H2, a medium-size version, and last spring it brought out the H3, the smallest of the group. The H3, which sports a 5-cylinder engine, is popular, but the entire Hummer group has been outsold this year by the Toyota Prius, a gas-electric hybrid. A key member of GM's board of directors has suggested that GM scrap Hummer altogether to save cash. Source: Washing Post

AM General, the creator and manufacturer of the H1, is focusing its efforts on production of the HUMVEE for the U.S. Armed Forces. The facility the H1 was manufactured in has been converted for production of the military grade HUMVEE models. No employees have lost their jobs. The H1 was born in 1992, known then simply as “The HUMMER.” With its capabilities and durability, the H1 established the heritage and superior off-road reputation that the world associates with the HUMMER brand today. While the H1 has been the foundation for the brand, HUMMER has grown around the globe with an expanded portfolio that continues to demonstrate the innovation, technology and capabilities that makes the brand legendary. Please rest assured, H1 owners can continue to depend on HUMMER and it's dealerships for service and maintenance for years to come. HUMMER's technicians will certainly honor their extensive vehicle, corrosion and accessory warranty. Please check back soon for more about the rich heritage of HUMMER. __________________ Black Sheep Hummer Squadron : Moab Green no Bling , Line-X & 35's *some Alpha parts too !!!!!!!!!* 06 H3 93 "HMC2 - Two-door, two passenger hardtop truck" "HP is highly overrated give me TORQUE" SUBLIME http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KI2INBQVpwk
