My Girl Just Arrived
Freight company just dropped her off today. I drove her around this afternoon and so far I'm in love. Love the smooth acceleration and handling. Been awhile since I first posted so here is the summary. My new sand beige HHr is my new company car. I'll have her for about 3 yrs or as long as it takes for me to hit 100,000 miles, the way I drive it'll be more like 2 1/2 yrs. Then I get to purchase her outright for some small change. First mod was the stubby antenna which I installed promptly upon delivery. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!! Odometer reads 37 miles after some driving this afternoon. Anyways love all the info here and looking forward to my 3 yr courtship with my girl.
Welcome!!!

It'll be interesting to see how well it holds up under so many miles in that short of time.A co-worker of mine has an 06 dark silver metallic with 80k miles and hasn't had the first problem yet (except for a wreck). We both work tech jobs, so our vehicles get miles built up quickly as well.
