Thanks for the update guys! My F-I-L has plans for the panel (needs something big enough to haul V-Twin frames, engines, and parts around town in). End of Q1 ... better call my sales guy to give him a heads up!!

The Panel is sweet looking. It is coming march/april that is from chevy rep. at the NAIAS in Detriot. the two front compartments in the load floor can be eqipped with locks that comes from the info brochure. But at the show it was all locked up so u could get inside of it. Yet the Premier Edition was wide open. The Panel has a special badge on the back of it instead of the HHR it has HHR with Panel written below it. Sorry the stud with the socalhhrs.com shirt is not included with the panel HHR.

This thing is pointless. No reason to buy one unless your a business and need the side panels for a sign. I love the HHR, but GM should have done it properly - suicide doors in the back, not the regular doors minus windows. Its dumb. Great for GM though, i.e. this was the cheap way to do a panel. Now GM if your listening, give us an HHR pickup! El camino for the new milenio! (that was the only way I could make it rhyme!)
Reason no. 1. Lay down a mattress....
That gives a whole new meaning to Shaggin' Wagon.Reason No. 2. Can you think about how much money you'd make, Haulin' sh** around???
I'll let you think of the rest.
