As a new owner (2 weeks) I am very happy with mine. According to the little average mileage thingy, I get 22.7 mpg. A lot of that driving is city/suburban with a little rural thrown in for good measure. I am sure as my ownership progresses, the mileage figures will change. My average speed is also quite low (21 mph) and I have certainly driven it at 70 a couple of times. I hope the guy is happier with his new Ram. Those are nice trucks, but i certainly think my HHR Panel is acceptable so far. As far as it being American made, I see the engine and trans in mine is all USA and the rest is from Mexico. Hey, at least North American, eh? I know Sean Hannity plugs the HHR as American made. Are they all from Mexico? The papers on mine say 51% Mexico and 49% USA. Just wait till China starts selling their cars here. They don't even pass the crash-worthiness tests for Germany, yet. I have no problem with the origin of the cars, Toyota and Nissan are good cars and they build them here as well. I once had a Grand Marquis that was all Canadian built, does that count as a foreign car?

 

You have to know how to play a deal, though.
