Just joined the fray. Looking forward to bouncing around to grab info and put my 2 cents in when appropro!!! User name is ilgallo, or 'rooster'. Since the latter was taken, I opted for a nickname given to me by an Italian buddy of mine. Given name is Billy, live in Derry, NH. Had been driving a Taurus ( ) until this past September. Thankfully totalled that POS and, with daughter in tow, found the 07 HHR. My munchkin loved the look(Imperial Blue/br chr pkg), with a 2.4L I liked the drive as well. Add the 6 disc changer, my 1.5hr + commutes are much easier to take! So, that's it for a long-winded intro. See you all around the campus!

 

to the site!!!

 

:twothumbs you only need 2 cents here, even get change back at times.

 

Well Rooster, welcome to our circus. Now, being in Derry, which side of the snow/ice line have you been on?

 

Welcome Billy! You'll find it informative & entertaining here! See you around the boards!

 

Thanks for the welcome. Fire: my place is on a hill off 28 by-pass, close to the Auburn line. I work in Waltham, so the 1.5hr commute should now make perfect sense. Where I live has its own micro-climate. I'll get a good 4 or 5 inches of white chunky rain, drive into Derry center and there's just maybe 2!! Anyway, was all snow the last couple storms. Was very dry(light powder), so easy to push around. Sat/Sunday's storm ended with freezing rain, but no real problem. Usually am well above the ice/snow line. I'll take a half foot of snow over a cpl inches of ice anyday. The HHR did very well Thursday, except for a failed wiper arm.
Left Waltham at 2PM and finally dropped onto the couch at 9.

 

Welcome Rooster....

I'm sure you are aware of the Italian translation of, "ilgallo".

Also (maybe if it's you) like your selection of cigars.

Enjoy the forum.

 

One and the same, Snoopy!!!

 

You've a handle at cf?
