I am with you on this also, I can't wait! I hope my HHR will be out of the shop by then. I just came back from the Body Shope and I won't know anything for a few more days. I also am coumting the days, Does any one have a set of Horse shoes so we can play, or do you know if they will be there for us to play with. Just an Idea. I hope to bring my HHR with me or
I will be looking for a ride or I will have to drive my rental car.

Hope they get it done so you can bring it along!

Mine has to go in now. Before anyone says so, I KNOW NEVER USE AN AUTOMATED CAR WASH!!!

That being said, I used one and it snapped off my antenna!!:censored:

The blower was working its way up the window drying the car and next thing I know that is a 'CRACK' and the sound of it rolling down and off of my car. went to two dealers and no one has the part in stock, big surprise there!

Hopefully it'll come in and I can get it fixed before the show.

I saw a thread a couple days ago about removing the antenna, and smoothing out the area. Do you use it? Got Xm?
Z-man`s Got a Ride!!! He`s a real knuckle head...
What made you go thru a auto wash? Haven`t gone through one of those since I lost a mirror back in '75...
Yeshua , didn`t you send the in-channel vents back? (window) Got mine today, even Mrs B/B aka Mrs. Cruck, likes them.

Nope, got vents for both cars...love em!

My question is.
Is that an easy fix or a major replacement, and the bad thing about the Car Washes is they have a sign on the wall before you enter. I have been in the Auto Washes but it was the Touch free. I have not tried the ones with the brushes. Do you think that they are all bad or what. I hope you get your repaired in time for the run, I hope mine will be.
Later and good luck.

I will be there, part is in. Thinking of trying to fix it myself. Only thing is is that the headliner has to be pulled to get to the bolt.

It was "touchless" except for the center dryer that dropped down. There was an option to not have it used but I didn't even think about it.:(

Called XM and found that 4 stations were sold to (I believe), Cox Communations. Channel 24 was one of them. It went from Sunny easy listening to "Sunny; songs you listened to on AM are now on XM". Found 24 music had moved to channel 78 "Escape". So much for the "Commerical Free Radio". If I hear a commerical, I just change the station.

I think It Is great that you are planning a run in 12 days. :thumb: I have a little problem. I can't seem to find any info about where it will take place.
There might be some attendees from outside your region who would like to attend. I for one might be able to make it If only I knew the location, date and time. That should be made available to everyone. I even checked the calander. No specific info there. Not trying to beat anyone up, just think that info should be out there for everyone to view. Of course, It could be there, In that case please direct me to the info. And that will show you my computer skills.
Thanks in advance.

Moose, we've been talking this up for a couple of months!!

It would be very cool to have you, Look in the Mid-Central Region and I think there's like 6 threads about this. One has the flyer and one has the entry form.

Hope this helps and hope to see you there!
