After 7 years and 150K miles...
After 7 years and 150K miles I still love this car (2006 1LT, 2.4, 5 speed).
It's still fun to zip through the gears and the engine revs to redline smoothly without power dropouts (even hit the rev limiter once in a while).
The car does everything well from carrying 5 people to 8' 2x4s to 12 rolls of insulation (everything but the drivers seat was packed full).
Earlier this year I bought a 2006 1LT 2.4L automatic from a fellow forum member from another state. This is the vehicle for my wife and son to drive. So we have 2 HHRs now.
Soon, more kids will be driving and I am hoping to find a used SS 5-speed for me and I will give mine to the kids. Then we will have 3 HHRs.

I have 96k on my 09 and just got an estimate from the local Chevy dealer to do all the 100k service.
Now I have to decide to spend between $1500 and $2000 or trade it in. It still looks like new except for the rock chips from traveling all over the US.

I know the dealer will be higher than an independent shop but I feel better using them.

fastsuv,
I'm glad to hear that you're still enjoying your vehicle 7 years later. If you need some help locating the new vehicle of your interest I would be happy to help.

If that's the case then we're slower. We bought ours 11/8/2005 and sold it 3/2/2013. 7 years 4 months. But we only had 72000 miles on it at the time.
