An HHR as a 53 Buick

Me too! It is too small fro a Buick! It looks a little British from the 50's because of its size though. https://www.flickr.com/photos/palmettopix1/6845202827/

 

Fugly. Really fugly. Seriously fugly. Coyote fugly. A car so fugly, if used as a hearse, it would make the dead rise and run. That's pretty fugly.

Now, the car that Krash shows us is pretty damn nice-looking! I'd drive that one.

 

Both cars have the same designer, a guy named Brian Nesbitt:

HA HA! Kinda cute huh Partrick ?

 

We have an HHR and it's pretty cool for what it is. It's not a full size wagon but, it's peppy and gets decent MPG. As for the one pictured; the front reminds of Fiat 500 with a custom grille.

 

I had an HHR for a while. Was a nice driver, but it had its issues, the biggest for me being the HUGE blind spot behind that A-pillar. When we got the Way Back Machine, it went from being my DD to the wife's DD, and she didn't like it much, so it's gone.......

 

If you think the pillars are bad on the HHR you should drive my 2004 Dodge Ram truck. It has much thicker pillars.

 

HA! I bought my 2004 Dodge Ram quad cab in Oct 2004. Ten years of driving with a telephone pole next to my face! Other than that I love it.

 

Do you have the Hemi? If so, consider yourself lucky. I have the regular cab long box with the 4.7L V8 and it is little underpowered especially being a 3.55 geared 4x4 truck but, I hope I can push it to 200k miles.

 

Yes I love the Hemi. I only have around 80,000 on the truck and that includes a bunch of round trips to central Illinois and back plus the Florida Keys and around the south.
It pulls a 23' RV up mountains in the Smokies like there was no trailer behind. Fuel mileage was 17.2 but now 14.7 even with cold air intake, duals with glaspacks, and the wires swapped around. But I burn 87 octain water and have a fibreglas topper!

I almost traded a few years ago for a red HHR panel then reality sunk in.
Durn pictures won't come up.

 

I have around 162k on my truck. The bad part about the 4.7L V8 is even after all this time a replacement engine for the truck costs more than the Hemi. The 4.7L V8 from a wrecking yard is typically about $2500-3000. Some Hemis I have seen for about half that. I'll keep mine going and then I'll figure out if I upgrade to a new Ram although I have towed with a Lil Red Express as well haha.

 

Atrocious !

 

I kinda like the side view....

...I'll show myself out now.

 

There's a saying: "Form follows function because function follows form is completely useless." All of you will understand why I said that once you attempt to replace headlamps or turn signal bulbs. I've had easier times doing timing belts on TP Cruisers.
