Hello (How I'd Do?)

Hello, my wife and I are new HHR owners. We bought a used black 2008 HHR LT with the 2.2 and auto transmission. So, far we like. It had 20,488 miles on it and we walked out minus sales tax paying $11k plus we got a $450 gas coupon (need to see if it's still legit). Anyways, how did I do. The car is replacing her 98 Ford Mustang V6 that has 171k miles on it and has been hit five times. I chose the HHR because of the styling and features not to mention I read it had good reviews on autos.msn.com I hope it does her better in the winter than her Mustang because she has country roads to drive and drives about 83 miles a day roundtrip.

Anyways, I own a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Reg Cab; LWB with a 4.7; auto SLT red/silver blah; blah. I also have a 1979 Dodge Lil Red Express (not running) and my wife has a 1970 Dodge Charger (R/T Tribute).

Well, just thought I would drop by and say hello. Anyways, I hope this car last her 10 years like it did her Mustang. How is everyone else liking the cars? Also, anything else I should watch as the miles rack up? Like common problems? I'm new so anyways, time for me to get off of here. Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the family. I'd say that you did well at $11K. You will find a lot of good information on this forum.

Happy motoring.

Where in Indiana? I'm in Lafayette. Seems like we're having a few more Hoosiers popping up around here on the forums.
