Casper (2.4 CGS & IMCO) got a speeding ticket when we were in Florida last December for doing 87 MPH in a 65/70 and had plenty of throttle left! Bummer is I gotta pay it though.

It's probably going to be held in the impound yard for awhile.

Just think, being local news, I'm getting to see it over and over again. All the local stations keep showing the crash part for their lead story.

That crash didn't even slow down the robbers they were gone in a second. What a tough lil car our HHR is.

I want to know how they, having just stolen the car, were able to bail out so quickly when it crashed because of the auto-lock. Unless it was disabled, that's probably as fast as I can get out with 12xxx miles worth of use on mine.

It's a wagon, no matter how you look at it..... You call it an SUV, your only fooling yourself.

There was more than plenty of time to hit the door switch. They probably tried to bail just after impact.

I feel like I'm Bill Murray in "Groundhog Day". The local stations here just keep playing the impact seen over and over.
