HUMMER Sale to Tengzhong Cannot be Completed
Wind down of HUMMER business to begin
Detroit – General Motors today announced that Sichuan Tengzhong Heavy Industrial Machines Co., Ltd. (Tengzhong) was unable to complete the acquisition of HUMMER. As a result, GM will begin the orderly wind-down of the HUMMER operations.
“One year ago, General Motors announced that we were going to divest HUMMER as part of focusing our efforts on Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac going forward. We have since considered a number of possibilities for HUMMER and are disappointed that the deal with Tengzhong could not be completed,” said John Smith GM vice president of corporate planning and alliances. “GM will now work closely with HUMMER employees, dealers and suppliers to wind down the business in an orderly and responsible manner.”
GM will continue to honor HUMMER warranties, while providing service support and spare parts to current HUMMER owners around the world.

TrailReady Beadlocks rule King of the Hammers
TrailReady Beadlocks cruised onto Johnson Valley’s Means Dry Lake to play David in this, the 4th Chapter of the King of the Hammers battle. Goliath was of course, the competition, the Official Wheel of the event, and had filled the field with soldiers on shiney new wheels. In the end however, the story ended as it usually does, with TrailReady towering over the battered competition. Loren Healy beat Brad Lovell to the finish line by a mere 28 seconds, both of them rolling on TrailReady’s HD17 Beadlock wheel. Trailready Beadlocks crowded the top of the leader board.
TrailReady backs their product by offering a one year unlimited warranty on the HD series including race hazzard. As the only Cast Aluminum Beadlock wheel made in the USA, superior domestic casting methods result in a stonger product that is worthy of this unusual warranty.
TrailReady Wheels enjoyed huge success in rock sports in 2009 with Tracy Jordon, the Lovells, Brian and Levi Shirley, among others, racking up wins and championships all season long. Good Luck Goliath, maybe next time.
