First the Freedom on Information Act, now the end of Hummers.
Damn hippies.
They won another one.

How this was a shock to anyone is beyond me. There was also a story on the news last night about dropping values of SUVs. Dealers won't even take them on trade right now because they can't move what they have.

Yep... Not a huge shock. Economic cars are hot right now, anything with good gas mileage... Who would want to drive an SUV that gets 10-12 MPG at this time? Gas prices are just crazy right now.

But $7300 is ridiculous, if you ask me, especially since I got mine for a dollar and a Snickers bar and I bought another one two years ago that was a fixer-upper for $500. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'm waiting for the car makers to roll out the real MPG. VW has a 250mpg car in the works <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
