I'm Chinese, something wrong? Hope there's no hidden racism in there.

BUT, I don't see them doing anything different with Hummer. There's no room in China for Hummer's on the road.

I owned a Hummer H2 and liked it a lot. Wished a Duramax diesel had been an option so I could get 16-17mpg instead of 12.

That not withstanding, I wonder down the road how many rank-in-file Hummer fans will be wanting to hang their steel balls from the trailer hitch of a Chinese Hummer?

We should all put our grey uniform on and sing patriotic songs about our great leader while lined up to buy a new Hummer. After all, it's now a planet-saving and progress-bringing vehicle since it's owned by our sincere eastern friends.

I'll have mine in soviet red with the optional SH package (Sickle & Hammer) and a tinted windshield so I'm not blinded by the bright future ahead.
