Hummer Dealer Closes, Will Sell Smart Cars

Posted by   Published in Car Buying

One of the country???s largest Hummer dealers is closing its doors. According to The Wall Street Journal, Las Vegas??? Towbin Hummer is at least the eighth Hummer dealership to shut that year due to a radical consumer shift absent from large SUVs in the face of high gas prices. Towbin was additionally Las Vegas??? lone Hummer dealer. Dan Towbin, who is a Hummer enthusiast, owns a number of other dealerships in Sin City and is opening a Smart store later that year. 

The Journal points to Las Vegas???

excessive culture as a surprising backdrop for such a closure. Perhaps the plummeting housing market there has something to do with public???s ability to shop for luxury SUVs. Whatever the reason, whether Hummer can???t outlive in Las Vegas, it may not be able to outlive anywhere in the U.S.
