First Time on Highway

I have had my HHR for almost a week now and today I traveled on a highway for about 10-15 miles and got a chance to let her rip. The 175 horsepower was very, very smooth to me!!. (I also love the electronic meter, that lets you know how much gas millage you have left!!)

Cool

Well the second or third time on the highway I let my HHR rip and I got it to a 110mph . It had no problems at that speed and it was a lot of fun .

Drop it down to 'I' gear and you can go faster than that!!

There's a limiter that kick in at 110. Shift down to I and she'll just keep going.

Mine was with a full cargo area and 4 people. I could tell there was still some more to it but that was fast enough for me!

You'll find threads about nothing but I drive.
