Via Gristmill, the Wall Street Journal is reporting: "The Baltimore Business Journal reports that sales of GM's mammoth Hummer have nearly tripled from a year agodespite $3-a-gallon gas and the fact that, according to the Journal, itcosts $3369 a year in gasoline to drive a Hummer 40 miles a day (incomparison, it costs just $973 a year to drive a Volkswagen Jetta thesame amount). The Journal says people are buying Hummers precisely because of high gas prices -- buyers want the world to know they can afford the gas."
