Rebel into

Hi all!

My wife Brenda and I had been talking new Camaro for a couple years.
A month ago I ordered a new camaro 2LT RS in aqua blue for her... Well she found out about it, and called the dealer to cancel the order.

Too much money and not enough gas mileage she said.

So two weeks ago I took her from lot to lot and asked her to drive what she wanted. After a G6, a vibe all wheel drive, she drove the HHR and said “I want this”.

So she chose the HHR over the Camaro. (I saved 16K)

She now has a gray LT 2.2 sun n sound, remote start, exterior chrome package.

I have 2003 SSR so we both have our own play toys.

We live on the north shore of Lake Erie, 40 minutes south of Detroit.

I’m a Millwright at Heinz (ketchup) and she works with OPP (police)

REBEL is a name I used for my dog (Brittany spaniel) that we imported from Michigan (Rebel k9 draft dodger) Also I airbrush and custom paint “REBEL with a cause and a loaded airbrush” is my tag line.

Hi Rebel,

I have a Rebel too, only it's a motorcycle. Honda 1983 CM 250 custom. Nice to see more Ontario guys occupying this site. And, thanks for driving GM. I'm retired from GM's huge auto-plex here in Oshawa. Worked in Reliability. Inspite of all the recent cut-backs sounds like we are getting a couple of product lines back. Doing pre-pilot on the Camero Convertible at the moment and a Buick is coming back and maybe if we are lucky an Opel.

Nice SSr, I'll trade you my HHR SS for it! lol Tried that before with a guy who was eye-balling my ride, he said no thanks, so I expect the same here, but maybe someday it will work!
