Thy Hummer Overfloweth...This is hilarious

Hummer Overfloweth

The word around town was that the Hummers weren't moving. It looked like high gas prices and a White House reversal on fuel conservation meant that fewer "W" bumper stickers would find their exposed sticky sides mating gloriously with the smooth rear bumper of an H2, somewhere between the tow loop and the access hole for a Class 3 hitch.


We were skeptical at first. 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.

<SNIP>

Hmmmm....perhaps bloated vehicles are NOT what America really wants!

3. May they all sit and rust!
And may everyone who bought one, who doesn't need one, have their penis fall off!

It's obvious they aren't using their penises anyway, so this isn't really much of a curse, but might as well make them feel really bad.

4. LOL! I love this...
"Apparently the thrill of driving Hummers back and forth between the remote storage lot and the dealer showroom wears off quickly, as each round trip requires that another five gallons of fuel be dispensed in order to ensure a complete round trip."

:rofl:

6. I'd heard of this happening with SUV sales in general.
Nice to have pics of Hummers to go with the story, though. Really nice.

Thanks for posting. :)
