My new HHR is Home

Long road trip from Ohio over the weekend. Had about 1800 miles to decide my likes and dislikes on the car. Here are ten random observations, in no particular order:

1. Texas love bugs suck.
2. Why did they put that stupid antenna in the front if it beats the hell out of the sunroof at 140?
3. People are generally too shocked by the idea that you have a fast HHR to play along with you.
4. Arkansas backroads are great fun late at night.
5. The Arkansas highway patrol has a sick sense of humor.
6. The arm rests on the doors are in terrible need of padding over long hauls.
7. The sunroof needs some sort of cowl. The stupid peice of fabric is noisy and goofy looking from the outside. I'm sure I can find one somewhere.
8. Most other HHR drivers don't wave back.
9. Holy **** this thing is fast.
10. I can't wait to start modding. The list just keeps getting longer.

I was reminded again about this morning, driving the SS to work after having the Avalanche all weekend on a camping trip.

AaronSS, a stubby antenna should take care of that problem!
