Since I was a good boy today and got all my work done early, I gave myself an early quitting time...being the boss helps me make momentous decisions like that.

Heading home with the Paddy-Wagon I stopped to pick up an anniversary goody in Afton, as usual I parked out in "Upper Lower Siberia", and almost predictable...Paddy attracted another HHR.

Paddy is in the foreground, his new "friend" sits one row over, of course I left an "HHR.net" business card under its wiper inviting the owner to check out our site here for tech info, ideas, and an opportunity to meet other HHR owners worldwide.

Couldn't be much more. I "utilized" the services of the local 24hr FedEx. Convenient, yes. Worth it, not really. Next time, I'll do a little more research first.

Absolutely right. Lower cost all around. USPS postage can be done online & if its priority mail-free pickup at your home or business. Flat rates, even new regional rates. Free boxes sent to your home to use for shipping. Free addition of Delivery Confirmation to your packages online also.

The ad "if it fits, it ships, is true-up to 70 pounds. I know-I have used it!

X3 for USPS...... Back 4 years ago when I had an eBay store Priority Mail was all I used, very cost effective and it was fast. At least at the time it was, I haven't shipped anything since.

The main reason I got an HHR LT at first and not long ago an SS it was because I can fit all my kiteboarding gear/surf boards, and gets me on the water in no time

Function is the main reason, love the roadster. Todd (Uma)

Love the Top Gear reference!! I finally got to the locksmith today to get a new key fob. $69.95 programmed. A good deal indeed. Todd (Uma)

You can google up the USPS price calculator.. It asks the weight, (bathroom scale works fine), & the box size L x W x H & destination.. Gives you the shipping costs. I love it..

I have recently sold off the last of my leftover Chevy S-10 stock suspension parts.. So I was shipping Heavy spindles, coil springs, you name it.. I'll ship it..

I won't ship any other way anymore !!!!
