Newbie saying hello

Thought I'd take a monent to actually say HI to the forum. Been hanging , but no posts till now.


I've had a 2008 HHR that I purchased new. Un fortunately it was totaled by a guy running a red light. After digging through lots of autotrader findings, My wife an I started looking at Equinox (Equinoxi ? Wwhat's the plural?) Decided against them and spotted a vehicle of interest on the lot. Amazingly, my wife was pushing for it instead of me.

We are now proud owners of a 2009 HHR SS, black with 19k miles.
Oddly, when I bought the 2008, I couldn't afford the SS then, and let the idea pass. I didn't even push the thought, knowing my wife hated the old HHR. But I guess ya never know what to expect out of those crazy critters called women, even when you've been married to the same one for over 30 years. WE take delivery on Monday, 02/28/11

My "normal" toy is a highly modded 1993 Caprice wagon, named Shammoo.
450 horsepower, TPI'd. I hangout at the www.gmlonggroof.4umer.com forum, but will be stopping by here more often.

What gave you the first clue there Sherlock, er . ah... Officer 1151
Try opening post , 2nd paragraph, where it said "it was totaled by a guy running a red light."


Officer 1151, I swear, the OTHER guy ran the red light and totaled my old car in Pic #2

Which is why I went out and bought the NEW CAR in picture #2

So the answer to your second question.. Which one is mine? The first WAS, the second IS.


By the way, How do you add an avatar photo, couldn't find a control panel option for it?
