Saying Hi, new to forum and asking ? about hhr's in general. I currently have a 1995 Chevy caprice wagon 108,000 miles(with lt1 350) it needs enough work (exhaust, radiator, gas lines.) that I am looking at 2011 hhr lt with 44000 miles for 9200. Just having a hard time seeing myself driving, hauling my dogs to field for a run and generally enjoying this. I love my wagon now and I am just seeing if other members still enjoy theirs after years of ownership. Also any opinions of price would be appreciated. Thank you!

Welcome to the HHR world. I purchased my first one in 12/12 and just upgraded to a different one last week. I am an outside salesman and they get great MPG and can haul a lot of stuff inside them. Me and my three kids did a thanksgiving trip to the bay area and they liked it better than the Toyota Sienna my wife drives. Overall you just can't go wrong with these cars!

Welcome to the forum!
My 2008 has 217k+ miles, and doing great! I love the fact that you can drop the rear seat and have a flat floor front to back. As a plus, you can fold the passenger seat forward, and easily carry 8' long items. I think the price on the one you're looking at is reasonable, but you can check it out at NADA.com.

aboard fab!$9,200 for a 2011 isn't out of the ballpark, just make sure you CarFax it and check things carefully.
I've got four of these Trucklets, a 2006, two 2007's, and a 2011. I've never regretted buying them, and it seems like they're more fun to drive with every passing day.

Welcome to the forum, we have 2 a 09 and a 10 both bought in 10. You will be amazed at how much you can stuff in one. I was talking to a guy I know and telling him I could put 8 foot lumber in and close the hatch, he said that he couldn't do that with his full size Explorer.
