Hummer Surplus

The Mess That Greenspan Made: Hummer Overfloweth

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.
Check out the photos of 300-some Hummers in SoCal, waiting to be loved... LOL

I love the last paragraph:

The reason that the story of rapidly rising Hummer inventory is so interesting and so amusing, is that America's most ostentatious Sport Utility Vehicle, the Hummer SUV, is a metaphor for America in the world today - overweight, overpriced, inefficient, and unloved.
Sad, but so true.

Buy one, get one free would be nice... or how about making a 4 cylinder, fuel-efficient Hummers?
