 To all of the inquiries I've had so far, whether it was by E mail, or phone, and it's barely 6 hours in to the auction..
It seems that an auction is not an auction any more.
Everyone wants to know what the reserve is, almost before it starts, or what is my buy it now price, or what will it take to end the auction early.
So, that being the looming question of the day, I'll address it like this.
To anyone that has ever restored an older vehicle of any kind, they all know what it takes to bring it to this stage.
To those of you that haven't done it, all I can tell you is that you are in the best position by far of anyone.
I've done many cars in my 60 + years of  existence, and what I find, is that what you get out of it, is not how much you put in to it, but the satisfaction of doing it.
It is quite rewarding in so many ways, none of them are measured in dollars.
I'd say you get back about 50 cents on the dollar, but the next  owner is the recipient of a great deal always!
That being said, I can tell you that I have in excess of $23,000 in this truck, so do the math, and you will know what I expect from the sale.
If that is within your budget, then you know what to do.
Hopefully it goes to a good home, and you will take very good care of it.
It should last another 40 years if you do.
It is 100% sound in every aspect and needs absolutely nothing.
Just get in it, turn the key, and you're down the road, rather quickly if I do say so.
It is an XLNT all around rig for whatever you choose to do with it.
I hope that answered everyone's questions.
I tried to be as thorough in my description as I could be, but the questions went a different direction.
I hope this addresses all of you that made inquiries so far.
Thank you,

3 Quick Takes on the new Hummer EV

Wed, Oct 21 2020

The 2022 GMC Hummer EV truck debuted Tuesday with 1,000 horsepower and up to 350 miles of range. It marks the return of the Hummer name after a decade-long absence and is the most ambitious electric vehicle General Motors has attempted. Here are three quick takes. This is how major vehicles will be revealed going forward The unveiling during Game 1 of the World Series on Fox and during The Voice on NBC could only have been bigger if done during the Super Bowl. A two-network debut complete with LeBron James providing voiceover for the commercial. On Fox, World Series play-play man Joe Buck neatly set up the spot and told millions of viewers that the order bank was now open. Then the Hummer debuted in what looked like a cut from the next Transformers movie. OK, this is not how every major car will be revealed, but the direct-to-consumer, as-many-eyeballs-as-possible, made-for-TV (or social media) event will be a key strategy going forward. In the last few months, the Detroit, Los Angeles and New York auto shows have all played leapfrog with dates, confusing many observers. The pandemic has obviously exacerbated the decline of auto shows, but if you’re an automaker, why share the spotlight in a convention hall? Most car reveals wonÂ’t be network TV spectacles, like the Hummer, but streaming services and other platforms will make a lot more sense than traditional means as companies compete for new buyers. This is how the Tesla Cybertruck should have looked Most would say the Hummer is pretty cool looking. The headlights, the grille, the blocky fenders and huge wheels — yeah, this looks straight out of central casting. ItÂ’s what you expected the reborn Hummer to look like, nominally now in the service of the GMC brand. Tesla made the Cybertruck a bit too crazy. Sure, itÂ’s attention-getting. But look at the Tesla. No one can objectively say the Cybertruck is aesthetically pleasing, from the shape to the features. ItÂ’s out-of-step with the graceful Model S and Model 3 sedans. The Hummer is futuristic, has interesting elements — like underbody cameras for off-roading and a T-top — and a massive presence. It doesnÂ’t need to do more. The addition of Super Cruise technology, however, is a nice touch. GM is serious about EVs The Hummer leads a blitz of EVs from GM, which is quietly yet ambitiously laying out an electric future.
