    Update on the Mighty Merc

    Well, since I last posted I have added the proguard undertail, some LED lighting, the magnaflow 2.25 duals with crossover and have driven a pretty good ways. She is running very well, and I am now getting 28-30MPG on long highway hauls between 65-75mph. Whodathunkit? Proguard skid plate goes on the front shortly (for my purposes- aerodynamic belly pan).

    Very nice! The front skid plate sounds like a good idea

      Yep...instead of a compact, I should've bought a whale. The HHR only gets 35mpg on long highway runs thanks to its odd aerodynamics.
