GM Closing Hummer

GM closed Hummer the day they bought it (the name, that is). This is only the final admission that they had no concept of what the original (and ONLY) Hummer, basically a civilian version of the HMMWV, was, or what it meant to the owners.

They continually tried to fit a square peg into a round hole, with the idea that it was a potential mass-market vehicle, when in fact it was an exotic with little or no appeal to most.

It is not surprising that they failed so miserably at what they did--but let's face it: GM has had years and years of destroying those companies and product lines it accquired.

Yep, GM couldn't give it away.

Once again our friend Canuck57 is telling us the sky is falling. LOL
