New owner
Hi, I can't seem to find the intro forum, so I guess it goes here.
I'm a new Chevy owner. I've been a very happy Taurus owner until a couple of months ago, when my sister totalled "JellyBean"
Well, my in-laws were so kind to give me their 2600 GM points to go towards a new car purchase. I never would have considered the HHR, had it not been for "Pop" putting the bug in my ear. I began to research, and was impressed with the look and stats.
So, my husband bought me an 07 Silverstone LS. I wanted bells and whistles, but were only able to afford the bells.
I guess "Chops" will be getting mods eventually.....
I am quite happy with my HHR. I love the gas mileage I've been getting. The ride is comfy as hell too. The interior is more narrow than the Taurus was, but I can deal with that....I've been getting ALOT of compliments as I get in/out of "Chops"... I love it!!!!! I like the fact that there aren't many HHRs here where I live, makes me feel different than all the other moms with their Odysseys, Pilots, Expeditions and Denalis...I stand out from the rest.

Your HHR may be silver, but its also a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency certified Green Vehicle:

Gotta love it. Greener than the Honda Element (according to EPA)...
