Please do not tell me the profits haven't been there since I know for a fact that at least one Hobby manufacturer head owns and drives a Hummer H-1 and at 115,000.00+ they ain't cheap!!!! Rant over and soap box neatly tucked under bed.





Pity your 'facts' are not correct.

If it is the manufacturer I am thinking of, the SMALL Hummer he drives cost nowhere near the figure you quoted.

Nice vehicle to ride in - bought for a specific purpose (and replaced another).

Perhaps the soap box needs to be a little less conspicuous. :)

FYI

H1 was +$100K, it is not even for sale this year.

H2 retails for about $56K, but I have seen them for sale here for as low as $30K

H3 retails for $30K but these too have been on "please get me off this lot" prices.

Not a goot time to be a car manufacturer that only makes Rhinos, Hippos. and Elephants

Curious as to which "small" Hummer it is, the Hippo, or the Elephant? ;)

Then the horses mouth ain't filled with hay:whistling::D

The info I provided was divulged in a conversation with the said individual about 2-3 years ago. We were commiserating about the then high gas prices. Not spreading rumor just repeating what I was told. BTW impressive edit of the quote. But ya forgot a whole lotta stuff said in between.:confused:;):D
