Chinese automaker building cars for their own army. Maybe they'll invest in hybrid technology. All I want is an H3T that gets great gas mileage and can tow a boat, a cool tonka truck not a war machine.
This kinda sucks too since it's no longer fully American I'll have to buy a giant F150 instead.

what percentage of American products are still being ACTUALLY manufactured in the US by ACTUAL Americans ? Even that country's Treasury Bills are ACTUALLY and LEGALLY being held by the Chinese . not at all mentioning the outsourcing of a great deal of American customer call centres in both the Philippines and in India . can you be so sure that even IPods , MacBook Pros and PowerMac G5s are still 100percent US-made ? welcome to reality , man .

AM General is the company that builds H1's n that is a private owned company they only had a contract with gm to build H2's in their plant and to help construct the H2 n H3. So who ever bought the HUMMER brand wont have the right to build H1's because they dont own the right to that truck they only bought out the H2 and H3 and the name NOT AM General. :)

It is not surprising that Tengzhong is interested in expanding the HUMMER dealer network in China and the middle east. The Chinese love large vehicles (read: tanks), and oil-rich Persians are largely lacking in taste. The downside is, I was really hoping HUMMER, as the posterchild of environmentally irresponsible, capitalist automotive buggery would go down in flames like sh!t set ablaze and taped to a tin parachute.
