How do you like it so far?? Pretty cool little "truck". Sort of sucks if you use for a DD though as you have to use premium with the little 4-banger.

The Tahoe, as much as I love it is gonna sit alot this summer. The GN is a daily driver and around town the gas difference is hopefully going to be worth it.

You have any pics of the HHR motor? How does it pull under boost/WOT? I didn't know they turboed that ride. Is it the Ecotech from the Solstice and the Cobalt SS?
