    A different company, AM General, make the military Humvee. The Hummer H1 was based on it, but not made by the same company.

    Now if the rest of GM just went the same way the world would be a better place...

    Saab lives, Hummer dies.

    I'm no tree-hugger but that's fine with me...

    Apart from the Muscle cars there isn't anything particularly interesting in their range. GM Europe seem to be enjoying a bit of a turn around at the moment producing decent cars but there is suspect reliability on the Insignias. Then we have the whole Chevrolet/re-badged Daewoo monstrocities.

    Their overall range is quite weak all things considered

    "the team" would be investigating that one until they got to the bottom of it.

    [set scene], on finding Horatio's body, calleigh gets her shot at the cheesy one liner.

    Any ideas on the line?? :p

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    If even the Americans don't buy them anymore, can we say that the SUV fad is finally dead now?

    Not really true SUVs just beafy plastics and raised suspension on normal town cars. Just as ridiculous really but a step in the right direction. The less weight under the school run mum the happier I am!
