Well, the wrx is in the shop for some body work. so they gave me this polished turd

performance wise, well, it sucks. if you are unlucky enough to need to pass someone on the highway, its best if you plan it a day in advance, as

it has no get up whatsoever. for some reason, it has a traction control button. which doesn't seem to do much. so i just left it on. i dont want any

trouble if the vtec kicks in yo.

lets talk about handling. it has a strange habit of wallowing. one time i had to take the sway bars out of my old outback. i drove to the store and back, and it was a hair raising experience. well this is a very similar feeling. lane changes will almost make you seasick.

i could go on about the bad stuff, but i will say something nice.

1. the power windows are fast. they jump up and down at about twice the speed of my rex

2. the headlights are awesome. really need to get mine off to lightwerkz.

 
I have told you guys countless times. If you ever want to a review from me on a car let me know. i rent cars all the time and can give you one.

Yes the HHR sucks big ones I could have told you that. had to rent one once and that will never happen again.

 
the local pizza shop has two. They vinyled them up to look like pizza.

I bet they drive like a pizza...warm and gooey with cheeze sliding around and grease dripping off the bottom.

 
What a pile of crap. that's all.

Totally correct. I work on these toilets on a daily basis. They share GM's a-body platform with the Cobalt. Control arm bushings, sway bar links, leaking struts, and a brake pulsation that will shake the wheel out of your hands is all common before the 20k mark.

that's all just an obvious sign of superior research, design and engineering.

i went back to enterprise, put the keys on the table and told them i wanted something else. then it went something like this. .. .

ME: .............

so, now i have this bigass truck, and i gotta say, chevy should stick to what they are good at. building trucks. this thing rocks, doesn't feel cheap, or lousy in any way. i am very happy with it!

so chevy, if you're listening. . .. . NO MORE HHR's, no more minivans, or chevy celebrities. . .. stick to trucks.

Nice! Given the choice between the HHR and the Rondo, hello Rondo!

How long to bang around in the Silverado?

 
untill i get the wrx back. i guess they door they ordered came in damaged. so they had to order another one. that and the fact that the closest replacement wheel was in okinawa. so they are just going to fix the body, and get me a check for the wheel.
