I have not seen any information on this in some time. When does GM's Licensing of the HUMMER brand name expire? I looked through all the info I used to have and cannot locate it. I'm not holding my breathe by any means, but still like to look in on the chance these rigs could be built new again. ...and there is no way for all the models to be built again until that licensing agreement has ended. ...hoping AM General can step up to the plate once that contract expires?

I thought it was in 2014. I don't think AMG can build anything but the H1.

No. They were not sold to the Chinese.

I think I heard Mike say 2015 recently
Hadn't heard that news, that's awesome.

I dunno... as a result of not being sold, the brand is now dead...
I think that has little to do with not being sold and everything to do with CA and Federal rules for fleet fuel mileage (CAFE laws) and higher oil prices; the main reasons for the sale in the first place. I think GM would be happy to continue selling 9,000 units a year if they weren't facing external pressures from laws.

Well I think we're going to have to agree to disagree on that.
