No kidding, Hummer is back–or at least the name is. Read on…
When General Motors dropped the Hummer brand from its lineup at the end of 2010, few could have imagined the nameplate would ever make a comeback. Hummer was so closely associated with excessive consumption and short-sighted corporate management that the moniker would seem forever doomed to the ashcan of automotive history.

This is a vehicle Goldilocks may have influenced.
