Oh, they're hella fun no doubt. You'll end up back on your shammies to get the real work done, though, as hunters just don't scale without healy/tanky people helping.
I'm not sure I'd agree with this statement, especially with the pet changes and removal of crushing blows in WotLK. I'm only guessing at this point but I don't see why a 4 hunter + healer team couldn't do just about everything in the game short of raiding content when the expack hits. As mentioned above, the one great thing about hunters is that they can provide constant DPS and you don't have to constantly press buttons to do it. And the pets (as a BM hunter) can kill things on their own. When I have those big pulls like the scorpids in Uldaman, I put my pets on aggressive and they tear them up and my hunters stand still and just lay traps while the shaman spams heals. It's a very efficient setup.
