It is a low pressure differential that does this, and the glass flies out, or pops! (higher pressure in the car, lower suddenly outside, houses are the same) Note it pretty much cleaned all the glass of that rear hatch on the HHR...... If it was something that hit the glass there would have been more glass still stuck to the frame.

Did you read the news story about that Lowes? The manager got everybody to the back of the store right before it hit.... saved about 100 peoples lives.

My wife told me if I would stop reading this stupid post I would have time to take the HHR for a spin. Instead of leaving it in the garage for the 1st 2 weeks of ownership.

Thats a good way to keep the miles off of it. Just missed my old truck for the first time . Had to make two trips to the goodwill in the short bus,but with the sunroof open and a peek of sunshine, made it twice as much fun. And saved couple gallons of fuel that will run my mover all summer.

I had to brush some wet snow off my HHR, but that pales in comparison to the wicked weather in other parts of our country. Family members I have in Alabama and the Carolinas are OK. Here's hoping you and yours are fine as well.

Nice Video! Nothing like the sound of a Supercharger winding up.

After lunch I put in my Cobalt SS/tc springs
It lowered the rear about 1 1/2 Inches.

Did a little twistie test, and it feels pretty neutral.
The front wheel drive feel has gone away.

My other Hot Rod is a street legal sprint car, and it about as sure footed as the sprinter.

I painted my drums while I had the wheels off, and put a red stripe around the lip of the drums...Cheap thrills
