    Wii Smart Car...



    I saw one the other day and it is SOOOO cool!! It looks like a roller skate. It's made by Mercedes!!

    I'd love one, but I can only imagine how much they are.

    Smart cars are quite common here..... lots of people buy them because they find then easy to park because they are so small!

    I see Smart Cars here....I want to pet them, they are so cute!

    I hate seeing them on the highways, I don't think they belong there....one high wind and that's it! But as a commuter car, I wish there were enough for everyone so we could cut the smog in our cities - and share the cost of a parking spot!

    PS - I think I saw a bright red one with black ladybug dots on it...hilarious!

    They are all over the place where I live and although they are cute, I can't help but wonder how "smucked up" you would be in an crash. There really is nothing there to protect you.

    On the upside, I can see why they are so popular since to seems to go forever on one tank of gas.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I remember going to Italy. There were hundreds of those around, especially in the bigger cities like Piza and Rome. I really don't like them, they are ugly and way to small for me.

    The old ones were SOOOOOO UGLY!!! They've done much to improve the looks. As matter of fact there are a few sub-models of Smart Cars now that hardly even look like smart cars.

    I've actually heard they have a great crash rating all things considered.

    The panels are interchangeable like some cell phones. (You can accessorize! No paint job needed.)

    The gas mileage compared to vehicles in the states is astounding!!!

    Yeah, one of our friends rented one about eight years ago while on a job over seas. He HATED it because it was so small and so slow. (He's from another European country. )

    I WANT ONE! I don't care if they're ugly. SMALL car, easy to park! Whooo! ...and i don't drive anywhere over five miles away anyhow.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
