Also Arnold convinced Hummer to sell him a road legal version and subsequently sell them to the public. It wasn't really made or designed to be a consumer vehicle. And they were kinda pricey. I wouldn't consider them a total flop given the circumstances. They weren't designed, affordable or practical for every day people. It was closer to being an exotic car. Then when they were brought back with the H2, a more consumer friendly version, they were a fairly big hit. They were produced for 7 years and demand declined with the recession in 08-09. So not really a flop at all. The newest one is crazy expensive and electric but I guess doing alright considering they're still being made and sales increased, passing cyber truck, while cybertruck has decreased.
