The word around town was that the Hummers weren't moving. It looked like high gas prices and a White House reversal on fuel conservation meant that fewer "W" bumper stickers would find their exposed sticky sides mating gloriously with the smooth rear bumper of an H2, somewhere between the tow loop and the access hole for a Class 3 hitch.

We were skeptical at first. Sources can be unreliable, but the scuttlebutt was that inventory had been building for months now and the local Hummer dealer had panicked. He had begun storing his Hummer inventory at an undisclosed location, far from the dealer showroom so as not to spook jittery, prospective buyers with the mounting number of unsold H2s and H3s.




Score one for common sense/sanity! http://forums.freshalloy.com/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Looks like this could be the start of the fall of the oversized people movers.

You really mean "Don't let GM investors see that". Cause if that happens, it'll be something else going down in flames and it won't be the Hummers.

psst... I got the goods man...

Oh, so anyway, the local Pontiac-Buick store acquired the local GMC store directly prior to the recent market slump in SUVs [supersmirkDX2 icon that we don't have surely goes in here] ... "much fun was had by all, expensing the unsold SUV inventory as M-Type had learned to do in his Accounting 101 class, guided by his brother's typed notes"

Hmmm... "Cost of Unsold Goods" ... increase by Yea-millions ... Total Revenue ... eh, leave that alone, I don't think that changed much. Wait, I found a penny someone dropped over here looking at the window sticker... Revenue, increase by $0.01 ... eh, it's a Canadian penny, eh" [looks back through notes]
