New Member, HHR Panel Questions.

Hi All,

This looks like a great, active forum!

I'm considering a new 2011 panel to replace my aging Astro cargo van which has served me well but is now costing too much to run and is not very fuel efficient.

Does anyone have any photos of panels with the Adrian Steel bulkhead and slideout tray installed? How do you find using it? Any other storage ideas out there? The van will have a dual use as a service vehicle for electric forklifts (breakdowns only and lightweight PM duties) as well as being used for transportation to and from operator training classes- so carrying all the training stuff. I'd appreciate any feedback from owners using their HHR panel as a service vehicle.

Thanks, Martin

Welcome! You wont go wrong getting one of these. I have heard of members putting crate motors in theirs and hauling it just fine.

Welcome!

I've only been here since November- good group of guys and gals....very helpful.

As to your 'new panel' questions, I seem to recall seeing something here about Chevy dealers getting a notice from HQ about getting any orders in for new HHR's pronto - particularly any panels. You might want to check on that. The clock is ticking......

Also, I don't believe you can 'option up' a panel to 2LT level anymore like you used to be able to. If you want a real loaded one, you may be forced to go used......
