HUMMER to display HX concept at Detroit Auto Show

[Phoenix]

I like the drawing, but the picture doesn't look as good.

[ChevroletTough]

Am I the only one who took offense to ARTSBEST's comment?

Seriously.

[TOMHONE]

Ah no. Matter of fact the guys calling a spade a spade, bro. But anyone that runs around with a pair of horns on his picky up truck obviously isn't living in the real world.

[TOMHONE]

Facts speak volumes sir. Obesity the number uno disease in America. Diabetes is now 3rd and approaching spot number 2. Why? Fat doesn't allow insulin to do its thing. GM has requested its major seat supplier to make the seats MORE ACCOMMODATING. Why? Fat rumps. The shoe mfg.rs are now making WIDER shoes. Care to guess why? And last but not least the average womens' clothing size is now 14, use to be 8. Not un-American as you would suggest, just the FACTS.

The part that matters the engine. Lets hope its a fuel efficient diesel. Right!

I don't know about that interior...kinda looks complicated.

Oh boy where do I start? First off I'm not your bro. Second I'm not living in the real world huh? I've went to college for 4 years, and I'm not saying I know it all, but I'm pretty sure I have a grasp on reality. I'm a white middle class male, (I'm not playing the minority card here, I'm playing the show-my-worth-card) in my twenties going to school. So how can you sit there and tell me that I'm not in touch with the real world? Buddy I've had to grow up a lot faster than most people my age. My parents have been seperated for over 2 years now, guess who was left to do all of the chores around the house during that time? Yep you got it, me. And this has actually been going on for 4 years. The house has almost been lost (Though I live at school.) This summer when I was home working, we didn't have electricity for a week and then I had to take cold showers for another week because the heat wasn't Paid. So I can't even fathom you saying that I'm "Not it touch with reality."

I never said that America didn't have a weight problem did I? No. I merely stated that the way he used the language was terrible. Calling Americans fat @$$ people. Who is granted the power to say that? No one. But if he was somehow able to speak in a civilized matter and show that he does know how to speak/type, I wouldn't of had to say what I did. You can state any fact you want, just present it in a professional manner.

The horns represent something to me, and if you don't like it, well then thats too bad. I'll leave you with something to ponder.

"I heard it through the grapevine
My new neighbor don't like my big red barn
A '47 Ford, bullet holes in the door
Broke down motor in the front yard
I got half a mind to paint a plywood sign
And nail it up on a knotty pine tree
Saying I was here first
This is my piece of dirt
And your rambling don't rattle me

Some people care about what other people think
Worry about what they say
Let a little gossip
Coming from a loose lip ruin a perfect day
Say, blah, blah, blah, just a jacking their jaws
Gotta let it roll off of my back
I don't give a dern what other people think
What do ya think about that

I wear what I want to, overalls, work boots
Crank my music up loud
Like to sling a little mud in my four wheel drive
Trek it all into town

Shoot a little eight ball down at the pool hall
Drink a beer with my friends
Now don't judge me and I won't judge you
Cause we all get judged in the end

Some people care about what other people think
Worry about what they say
Let a little gossip
Coming from a loose lip ruin a perfect day
say a blah, blah, blah, just a jacking their jaws
Gotta let it roll off of my back
I don't give a dern what other people think
What do ya think about that

Some people care about what other people think
Worry about what they say
Let a little gossip
Coming from a loose lip ruin my perfect day
Say a blah, blah, blah, just a jacking their jaws
Gotta let it roll off of my back
I don't give a dern what other people think
What do ya think about that

Say, I don't give a damn what other people think
What do ya think about that
TELL ME WHAT DO YA THINK ABOUT THAT
What do ya think about that
WHAT DO YA THINK ABOUT THAT"

I dunno, with a direct injection V6 and a 6 speed...not to mention the small size....I would be surprised to see it get below the low 20s. Heck, the 2 door 4x4 S-series Blazers were ticking off 17-19(some a lil higher) on the highway with 4 speed autos and the ol OHV 4.3...and those Blazers were heavy beasts by the end.

This kind of awesome rig would, in my opinion, go a long way towards making Hummer a viable brand again. Personally I don't care what brand they make it under...Hummer, GMC, or Chevrolet. Just make the damn thing. If it were to remain true to the concept I would totally buy this thing in a heartbeat. I might give a little on the interior if they wanted to change that some...not much though.

As such, I have no doubt one of 3 things will happen:
1. It will never see production
2. It will be emasculated and castrated to the point where it is not much more than an updated tracker (worse than the first possibility) and there would be little to no demand for it.
3. GM will kill the entire brand...or sell it to someone who will scrap the Hx idea.
