I don't want to preach here, but what happened to "BuyAmerican". It won't have much effect on a man my age, but you youngpeople. Think about your future and the future of your children. Lets get thiscountry back on its feet and support American industry. Buy American! Sorry about that........End of rant.

This has been fully paid for 4 yrs with the hopeI'll drive this for 3 more years. To date, I've yet to go the new car route and havenever regretted the move. But then again, I've been sticking to either Toyotaor Hondas products for the past 30 yrs.

As some of you know, I have been ravingabout my Chevy HHR. It's a wonderful little station wagon, where the rear seatsfold down, giving me a totally hard flat surface on which I can shove in agrand action, and leave enough room for all my tools and supplies. It's been agreat little car, which I've driven with absolutely no problems for over100,000 miles. But I am weary of the number of milesI've driven. I don't want to push my luck. So I'm starting to think aboutgetting a new car. My first visit was to the Chevy dealer. I proudly told thesalesman that I'm ready to buy another HHR. Just show me one, andI'll sign on the dotted line. Well, would you believe that GM, in it'sinfinite wisdom, has decided that the HHR was not what enough consumerswanted, so they pulled the plug on production with last year's model. No more new 2012 HHR's, and thereare no new 2011 models left anywhere on Oahu. So what's a guy to do? What other small station wagon has a flat folddown back seat? I only want a new car. None of this use car crap. You windup buying someone else's problems. Sign me, disgruntled, but wishing for abetter world.
