Hhr magnet

Does anyone know how to disable the magnet in my 08 hhr lt? Every time i go to the store, walmart, kroger. Etc. I park at the end of the lot. When i come out of the store, some s** is parked next to me. 2 acres of empty parking spaces and they have to park next to me. Is it the magnet in the hhr drawing the other cars to me or just a bunch of dumb a** inconsiderate drivers. Maybe i can find some spray to spray around the hhr to repell the other cars. Or maybe i can take my ruger 9mm and let the air out of their tires, but no, that would make too much noise and i probably would get into trouble with the law. Anybody else have this problem, or is it just my hhr? Any sugestions
thanks.

I want to know the answer to that one too. I figure its either the HHR or me.... and since I'm a hideously revolting 6' 2" troll... I'm guessing it's the HHR!

Let me know if you find one. I've been lookin for mine every since I got my car and have yet to find it. I think I might take it back to the dealer and ask them about it

I will find an HHR on the parking lot and park next to it if possible. That will repel other lower insignificant cars.

Just park in with the other cars, that's what I do, but if I see a emtpy space next to another HHR I'll park there, and I never mess a chance to park next to a PTC. I think the bud guy thinks I'm stocking him, I have parked next to his HHR 4 or 5 times now.

Back when I was younger and driving junkers, I would always park as close as I could to those guys that parked out in the open just to mess with them, and if some one was taking up more then one space, I would be so close to the driver door they could not get it opened. I was kinda a jerk back when I was young.

Now that I'm old, when I see an empty space I pull in it, the HHR fits a lot better then the old pickup.

I often times will flip shopping carts up on their backs near my hhr, most people don't want to them out of their way.
