I understand where you are coming from! Just give her space. I know it sucks but sometimes things happen for a reason. Every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end.

As for the hhr, I guess you could always look used, but they are still pricey compared to an s-10 or ranger. Whatever you do in the end, do whats best for YOU.

I hope you get yourself a Ranger with side airbags. My wife dodged a deer and went off the road in her Ranger and the strong side-to-side motion as she left the road banged her head against the door so hard she ended up with a serious brain injury. Seat belt on, and the steering column airbag didn't even deploy. Course any vehicle can be a head banger in such a situation. At least your head banging is from a different point of view.. Good luck.

"'im sure many people know about navy marriages not lasting"

Same goes for Air Force marriages, too. But I'm the opposite - I got my HHR after the divorce!

And as far as the S-10 goes, I've got a '94 extended cab S-10 w/5-speed, lowered 3" all way around and a set of IROC 16" rims...and it still gets compliments and looks wherever I go. With 186,000 miles, I've put a water pump, clutch, and a couple of batteries in it - that's it.

Stay Bowtie, bro!

You guys with your S-10's I'm actually looking for one right now so I won't have to keep bugging my buddies to move things around since my truck gets about 8 mpg...

Here was my '87 with 160K tripping to Toronto.
Good truck.

Just wished it had the 4.3 with EFI, the 2.8 was anemic.
My '92 4x4 had the 4.3 and it was kinda ballsy.
