It seems there are quite a few people who belong to this club, but don't participate in the forums alot, why not mail questionaires out to each individual, so they can voice their opinions privately. you might find that you have more support than what you realize. If you don't want to mail, do a mass questionaire, in each person's private message area?

Magazine
SoCal,
I think the idea is great! Count me in.
I used to be in the Late Great Chevy car club when I had my 1961 Impala. The club had a magazine that was probably 15-20 pages and showcased members cars, tech tips, etc. There is nothing wrong with starting small and growing from there.
Look forward to contributing to the forums.

Sounds like a great idea. It might also lend some leverage to use with suppliers, as you already suggested, but might work as a means of giving the group some clout with GM as well. You can go to them and say this is what our group of owners want in your future designs and these are the MANY problems, some serious enough for you to have to buy them back, what are you going to do for us? As a group that has enough interest in their vehicles to want and support a magazine, we can gain the necessary clout to spell out a direction Chevy should pursue when they are teatering on the edge.

Hi Guys!
It sounds great, and as much as I DO NOT read car mags I WOULD buy the HHR one for sure. I think I read someone say start small and grow from there, I think that you would be surprised as to how many you will actually need to publish. I'M IN!!!!!

Why cant you make an online mag and see how many times its downloaded based on the IP address and then ask for people to donate to keep it going untill you can actally print. Doing a PDF file mag for awhile has a lot less printing costs on your end.
