I voted we share it equally because there was no option for we share it UNequally We bought it for us and she drives it 75% of the time and I work on , mod, and maintain it 100% of the time so I guess that makes it ours, right??????

I wanted to get one back when they first came out - but could not afford to get one. I started looking for one when my ZX2 Ford Escort was about to bite the dust. Took my 3 months to find an Orange one with the 5-speed. No, the wife does not drive my HHR - she drives a Equinox.

I've been corresponding with a woman in San Francisco who didn't know what an HHR was until I told her what I drove(she thought it was some sort of Hummer!).Now that she's seen one in traffic out there she thinks they're cool cars and wants to drive mine if she ever makes it here.Poor thing,she's stuck with a Yaris.

We got our first HHR 1LT Sunburst Orange in early 2006 for my wife, I drove it on the test drive and never drove it again we later gave it to our son and my wife then got a PT Cruiser Limited. I have driven the PT but only once and again that was on the test drive. In May of 2009 I got a new 2008 1LT Victory Red and I think my wife has driven it once but I am not even sure of that. Oh yea, the 2006 that now belongs to our son is totally trashed on the inside and has been in 4 accidents none off which were my sons fault, however he did come home one night holding the rocker panel in his hand and said “dad this fell off the car today” he hit a very high curb in a parking lot. Thank God for good insurance and a great body shop called “U-Name It” the car still looks new, on the outside only.

Almost 70% his...

I went to see about the black Cobalt SS on the showroon floor.
The evil black HHR SS was beckoning to me.

HHR has a nicer interior (believe it or not) and just as much power.
Can make it considerably more powerful and still get over 28MPG?
Lug around a buncha big $hit too?
Looks cool but very sleeper-fied?
Can sleep in the back if absolutely necessary? (I'm 5'8")
I slept in my '90 Eagle Talon for about a week and a half at The Grand Canyon. Ouch.

Crunched to within a couple of hundred $$ of the '09 CSS and I'll need a test ride.

I knew it was mine within a mile but took a 40 mile "test" ride anyways :redXdance WAY too fun to bring it right back.

In my driveway within a week and 1600 miles on it about a week later

Got my first speeding ticket the second day I had it on the way to Laconia.
Three ex-cage dancers from the Broken Spoke Saloon asked me for a ride to their tent that night. Um, ok

Bought mine for me lol. The wife has an '04 Mazda 3 that's about to be traded in on an Equinox and hopefully (keepin my fingers crossed) mine will be gone for an SS before the year is up
