[quote name="Fussbett"]Sanitario666: Also a Chinese firm bought Hummer today. INC: haha INC: for what, $20? Sanitario666: What next, buying the AMERICAN FLAG?! Sanitario666: Yeah, the price was my question too, especially in light of Pontiac being shut down completely. Fuck even selling it. Sanitario666: No one wants Pontiac at all, we rammed it into the ground so fucking hard. Sanitario666: Hummer means more to people. Hummer! INC: they bought it so that BYD could see how close they were with the Hammer INC: "Oh, big engine! No wonder..." Sanitario666: "Frame not made out of old newspaper and apple cores!" INC: <i>Sichuan Tengzhong deals in road construction, plastics, resins and other industrial products, but Hummer would be its first step into the automotive business.</i> INC: good first step INC: <i>Eric Lane, vice president of Baton Rouge, La.-based Gerry Lane Enterprises, which has four dealerships — including one offering Hummers — welcomed the sale. Lane said a lack of new products and the recession figured into the Hummer equation much more than last year's runup in gasoline prices. "I haven't had a single owner complain about mileage. Nobody buys a Hummer because of the gas. You don't buy a vehicle for $60,000 and worry about the price of gas." </i> INC: yeah, I think you just don't buy the vehicle, period INC: I like the "no complaints" argument, though. No one is surprised to find out the MPG sticker was right Sanitario666: Haha that Chinese company probably doesn't even know what they bought. Sanitario666: First ones are going to roll off the ship. "AI YA!" INC: haha yeah INC: "What are those round things?!" INC: they're already shipping them straight to construction sites INC: "What do you mean workers are DRIVING them? How do you drive a tar?" INC: "No, not TAR. CAR." Sanitario666: "This is the worst $20 we ever spent!" Sanitario666: "That's like a year of resin!" INC: "Okay, repaint with lead paint, sell back to Americans."[/quote]
