LOOK MA! No Flaps! 4 years 1 month old -30,023 miles. Another attempt

Today I decided to give another run at re-falling in love or tolerable like with my HHR. I removed EVERYthing from glove boxes, door pockets and the console. I laid down the seats, used both of the rear carpets I have and added a thick blanket like in a 70s's van. Tucked and ghetto tailored the blanket. Took the passenger seat and tension wedged the back into the rear seat that's now down. This will shut the knocking rattle in the flip forward knuckle. My HHR is not carry ANYthing that can vibrate or rattle friendly.

Then I removed the mudflaps that were on the car the 4th day I had it. They were looking tired. Took some cleaner wax and got the marks off from the flaps. Took a cruise and it's a little quieter it seems. Car stays for now.





My real Job

That's just it, it always gets 76 premium, Mobil 1 syntho, washed 3 times a week, wiped down with Meguires every day, added an additional cool air supply to the driver's side of my stock intake to give it a lil mo' mo' - play nothing but excellent music thru it's Pioneer's and it still.....is...........nevertheless, reprieve it shall have. Actually fortunate as I also drove one of these today.

2.0 turbo, Tiptronic auto w/paddle shifters and a BADASS Fender designed audio system. Thing streams MP3's from your iPod. Anyways, I didnt take the HHR when I went to drive it - Interesting though, they wanted 9k plus my Marauder out the door. I called 9 1 1 as this poor salesperson must have bumped his head.
