Around 2 months for my SS, and most of my driving is a hr at a stretch and with my back being what it was (spinal fusion bottom 3 verts to the tailbone) i'm doing OK. I get sore/ancey after a hr driving regardless of what i'm driving but the SS has done me good IMO , so far.Got a lil more seat adjustablity with it so that helps also.



Plus the drive is more fun now LOL

Probably means and "hour" drive at a time.

The SS is a great road trip car. I just got back from an over 800 mile trip this holiday weekend. I was very happy with how my SS preformed. I could see some people being a little uncomfortable with the performance seat if they over 200 lbs. I am 5'10" 170 lbs and the seat felt really good. The car is pretty quite at speed and the torque and turbo boost makes passing a blast on the highway. G.B.

Anyone here go from a car with leather seats to the HHR SS? Any issues with that transition? I love the leather in my GP for sliding in and out of the car and it fits me like a glove.

I still can't figure out why they don't offer leather in the HHR SS, like they do in the Impala SS, etc.
