Question to ponder
You know, I was just thinking and realized something.....If the HHR was based upon the 1949 GMC wagon, Shouldn't GM have created the HHR for GMC instead of Chevrolet?? ..Just realized this just now, however, maybe they also took in consideration of how the Chevrolet TRACKER looked for inspiration and created the HHR because of it?..The HHR DID replace the TRACKER....I don'tknow, It just got me thinking.

Right First the PT Crusier, second the HHR (which 90% of people still call a PT)[Not HHR People] So when the third one comes maybe the HHR will be remembered?

It would be neat tho to see GMC's Version of the HHR, But I would change the name to set it apart from the HHR....I'd call it...the GMC JOURNEY. HEEHEE!
