Bwahahahahahahahahhahahaha....nice find.
"The reason that the story of rapidly rising Hummer inventory is so interesting and so amusing, is that America's most ostentatious Sport Utility Vehicle, the Hummer SUV, is a metaphor for America in the world today - overweight, overpriced, inefficient, and unloved."

But the story ends in December. Maybe they were all sold for Christmas?
We have a lot near here where they store pre-sale cars. But they're all covered with some sort of anti-nick skin. The Hummer dealer must have had confidence the vehicles would sell fast if he parked them uncovered out in the open sun where birds, dust, and sun can all do their thing.

Oooo! That looks close...$39,874 / 5 years / 12 months = $664.57 per month.
Curses! Missed it by *that* much!
