It sucks that he didn't learn at a younger age that doing what your dad says isn't always a great idea.

Yeah I wish I had learn that lesson sooner myself.....but that's for whole 'nother story entirely so I'll just leave it at that.

Mine convinced me buying a PT Cruiser was a good idea.

Funny how the HHR despite being a copy of the PT has come out of that era somewhat cleanly remembered. 

Dad traded his own PT Cruiser (black, with purple flames) for an orange HHR.

Not by me - I remember both cars being so shitty, they made up a good chunk of rental agencies' fleets for years.

The one HHR model that always intrigued me was the SS panel van.  That's something that shouldn't exist but does.

Is that the one that doesn't have any back windows? That's the one my dad has.

Yes, but with the 2.0 LNF Ecotech Turbo.

Well, this article by the New Yorker is something else. It seems the Rubik's Cube thing was probably a way for the 19 year old to rationalize going on the dive. But holy shit what a clusterfuck this whole process was from beginning to end.

It was literally this.
