2007 Chevy HHR

Gypsy's dh just rented an '07 Chevy HHR, so of course we had to go play with it and give a short review. ;)

Our notes:

Husky + Recline Bar, SBP seat belt; center install acceptable but quite a lot of work, needs buckle twisted; couldn't get an acceptable install outboard.

LATCH is outboard only.

Four top tether anchors (one for front passenger seat! :thumbsup: ) Rear anchors on the "floor" behind the seats, so no ceiling tethers over the cargo space.

Back seat is wide enough for several 3-across configurations. Driver-side outboard is the narrowest seating position; Turbobooster fit but was slightly slanted towards the front on the left (driver's) side.

What perfect timing for you to post this! I was just looking at the HHR and came here to see what people had said about it. So overall, what do you think about it?

I'm really not sure, actually. I didn't get to drive it; not sure if Gypsy's going to or not. I don't know what the gas mileage is, safety ratings, etc. It seems like it would be a good vehicle for a family with two kids, possibly three, with lots of cargo room in the back.

We have a trail blazer now and I want to downgrade - trying to be all green and everything- and this seems perfect for going smaller and more earth friendly without losing the storage space.
