And its mainly those people who buy Hummers. lets face the facts here, if someone wants a vehicle that will be seeing lots of off road punishment will they be buying a $60k Hummer H2 or a $30k Jeep Commander (or similarly priced SUV from anyone else). I know I wouldn't want to scratch up my nice big shinny wheels on the Hummer. But on a Jeep battle wounds are something to be proud of.

If people were buying hummer's because they are needed, their sales would not have dropped by 50%.
