Greetings ya'll

My name is Jim and I just bought a 2008 HHR SS this past Memorial Day, in "Arrest Me Red" color. My interest (among others) will be in towing it with my motorhome. I see there is a Blue Ox tow plate for it but haven't seen any pictures of the finished product and how bad the front air dam was messed up. No way in hell is it like a standard HHR! Anybody have any pictures and words of wisdom (experience)?

Welcome! :) Enjoy the SS and hope the embedded link that Mike (843de) shared with you, works.

Thanks

I want to thank all of you who replied about the towing of a SS. I'm sorry this is so late but I got "called away".

Still haven't seen a picture of the SS front end set up for towing.

Glad I could be of some help, once you get your HHR rigged up post some pics.

It'll be great info for the next member thinking about towing their SS.

Will do, when I get to doing it and when I figure out how to post pictures here.

By the way, what the heck is "Trifecta" I see spoken of regularly around here? Ya'll got a bookie service going?

Jim

Give this thread a read, the Trifecta Tune is an easy way of finding some extra "Oomph" that Chevy left on the table.
