Does your pride in ownership change with Hummer becoming a Chinese company?
Now that Hummer has been sold to a Chinese company...Does it change your pride/image towards the Hummer brand? Sorry for this touchy question.
I am a big Jeep fan. I own two (owned three total) Jeeps and would be really, really, really ticked off if Chrysler sold Jeep to any non-American company! I am not sure if I would hold onto my Jeeps as a couple of the last American Jeeps or if I would sell them off as I would not want to associate with the brand anymore?

Nope, not a negative for me all!
Since Jeep is now Italian and Land Rover is Indian, it seems only natural that Hummer should be foreign owned as well. Google around a bit and look at the awesome Buicks that China is building for their home market. I wish we could get our hands on some of those models here!
The only thing that irks me is that the USA is not in the position to buy a penny of China's debt while they can afford buy $ trillions of ours! LOL

Also not at all! maybe now some money will be pumped into the Hummer badge. Obviously GM gave up on Hummer months ago.

No way! I have had six different Hummer's over the years, I cant wait to see how far the new owners can take the brand.
