How do they handle in the winter?
Well after a weekend of test driving a number of different cars, I narrowed it down to two which each are really on totally oposite ends of the spectrum. I like the Mazda6 and the HHR. I'm really leaning toward the HHR for the simple fact that it is unusual.
I live in Buffalo NY and wondering how they handle in the snow???
Thanks in advance

Never had any trouble last winter, here in Chicago. Loved those heated seats.
Preheating the Cruck helped too.
PS. The auto start system can be pre-programed to start the veh. at different intervals during really cold days, too keep everything nice and cozy.
Oh, did I mention, I Love My Cruck..!!!

I live in Florida, so I can't speak to how the HHR handles in the snow, but my wife and I own a 2006 HHR LT2 and a 2005 Acura TSX. When we bought the TSX, we also shopped the Mazda 6. I find the HHR to be just as quiet and comfortable as the Acura, but somehow more fun to drive (despite being less powerful). While the TSX is a very nice ride, the HHR simply puts a smile on your face every time you drive it. When I grab for a set of keys, the HHR always gets the nod! I also appreciate the HHR's fold down seats and ability to haul stuff. We traded in an SUV for the HHR and can honestly say, from a hauling perspective, the SUV isn't missed.

There arent very many cars out there that I like enough to go and buy brand new. The Mazda 6 and and HHR are on the top of my short list. But in the end, the Mazda is "just a car" where, as Boko mentioned, the HHR puts a smile on on your face. If I'm going to spend the money on something new.....i want the smile
