Latest sales stats show the Big 3 (which depend too much on big SUV & truck sales) have now fallen below 50% of the US market for the first time ever. Sounds...
I have a Dodge Hemi Ram Quad Cab. I need it to pull a trailer and haul big loads. Since I bought the HHR in June I've only used my truck once and that was only...
If you have a bike for every purpose, why do you need a trailer for them? (OK I can see hauling a dirtbike, but those things are light enough the HHR could...
Because I'm retired with a bad back and can't ride the bikes everywhere I want to go to ride. I have handicapped plates on all of my vehicles. There aren't too...
In that case I admire you for continuing to ride at all (can't see your full email address since I don't subscribe to emailed posts). I intend to stay in the...
I know what you mean. I have collected a fleet of old Jeeps that I love to drive. My J-10 pickup will get about 16 MPG. I really eye things up to see if they...
I had a Doge Neon that had a key like that. If you are wanting just to open the doors the one at Home Depot or anywhere that makes keys can do it.But it will...
If you change the diameter of the wheel/tire will the car compensate for the diameter change? In the "old" days we had to change the gear in the transmission....
What do you mean by compensate? If you are refering to the speedometer, no. You would have to have it flash for the new tire size. Often you can avoid this...
I thought that perhaps the fancy pants electronic speedometer might compare engine rpm with axle RPM, knowing for example, 2150 is 55 MPH. Of course if you...
I checked out the http://superchips.com/ site and they don't make a hand held tuner for the HHR. A "flash" is basically resetting or tuning the computer. The ...
I think having larger OD tires may also affect shift points if you have the auto-tranny. The easiest thing to do if you want larger wheels is to get lower...
You are correct. That's why when I had my ecm/bcm "tuned" for performance, I also had them adjust the settings for my new tires. I'd switched to 18's with a...
Okay folks, let's do something!! Me and Bonnie are going to go to both of these cruises, who wants to join us?? Either one or both, we'd be glad to see you...
As far as the transmission shift points, a cool feature with the HHR is that it has an adaptive transmission. What that means is it will actually adjust its...
Actually I was plotting a method to rid myself of the low profile tires by going to a smaller wheel and larger tire. Unfortunately, the smallest wheel that...
Hi Everyone, My wife and I love the HHR so much we each have one! We live in the Bowling Green, Kentucky area. Anyone else out there from South Central...
I'm feeling pretty "green" driving around in the HHR instead of my Dodge Hemi Quad Cab. I had bought the HHR for my girlfriend and we broke up. If I didn't ...
Todd, We understand that. The first time we ever drove one we got it as a Hertz Rental while we were in Oregon. Maryellen said she loved it, so when we got...
... I live in west Michigan, and I didn't have a problem getting through the snow. Front wheel drive is almost as good as four wheel drive, unless you go off...
I prefer a vehicle loaded with stability control, ABS with EBD, 4x4 etc for the rough western NY winters. They don't close schools up there unless there's more...
It is definitely time for an update and to get the word out about the Boogie at the Bay run in the Wisconsin Dells Auguast 24-26, 2007. First a bit of history,...
Many FWD cars get around fine in moderate snow but are too low to the ground to do well in DEEP snow. I have a 4x4 Jeep XJ I'm afraid to get rid of cuz it's...
Wife and I have decided to our Chevrolet HHR toad. We took it to carmax and were offered $14,500 cash for it. Before I give it to them, I thought I would...
Greeting owners, The Modesto HHR Club will be hosting our monthly G2G/Meeting this September 15 starting at 11:00am, and will take place at American ...
I just park the HHR when snow comes. I drive my CJ-8, with the plow all winter. I will drive the HHR if it is clear, sunny and cold in the winter, but...
Wow you must be a Jeep collector. Nice cross section of post-war to pre-Chrysler Jeeps--all you need is maybe an FC to round it out. Dad made me learn to...
I changed the front page of the group to include a picture of the new SS that is set to start hitting dealerships in Jan. 2008. I also included some Q&A's. I...
