Cobalt_Daddy

Just decided it'd be a good thread to have for new Cobalt owners who have just purchased a cobalt and want to know more about their car or what to expect. feel free to add to it and help the newer owners figure out what is something to worry about and what isn't! please keep it serious no comments like "known problems .. it's a cobalt" and if i have missed something please feel free to add it.

Thanks
