It’s getting tough for even the most ardent supporters of the Hummer brand to continue to keep hope alive. Reports the aficionados at HummerGuy.net: “While many of us were hoping for a last-minute miracle to save the Hummer brand, signs from Detroit are indicating that Hummer production will soon cease indefinitely.“

It appears as if General Motors has resigned itself to winding the brand down and letting it die a slow, agonizing death. The automaker says that it’s no longer considering offers for the brand and dedicated Hummer staff are reportedly be assigned to serve elsewhere.

Oh, and about that “Save Hummer” summit that’s planned for April 11th near Chicago? GM, though it is aware of the rally, has no plans to send representation. That sound that you hear? That’s just the tolling of Hummer’s death knell. Thanks for the tip, Brian!
