Crash course

General Motors has decided to park the ultimate gas guzzler in that big garage in the sky.

Enviros who say fuH2 may be cheering, but what will they make fun of now?

UPDATE: The pearly garage doors may not have shut on Hummer quite yet, as two previously shunned suitors have come a-callin’ to GM.
