It’s not an electric, but it’s still pretty darn cool ~ SmartUSA allows reservations for Smart fortwo
Just got an email today from SmartUSA saying they are allowing online reservations for their Smart fortwo. I went ahead and made one even though I am still heavily debating the whole fuel efficiency with this model (40 mpg), however it would be better than my current Chrysler Sebring at 24 mpg. The thing that intrigues me the most about this car is the parking as well as the looks it gets. You can park two or three of these things in the space normally reserved for a regular size car. To me that means I can stop b*tching about my current “boat situation” and park in some ridiculous spots on the street. Also, it doesn’t look like anything else, so I’m sure there will be some fun convos to be had about where I got it, how it functions, etc, which I can hopefully be an advocate for smaller, more fuel efficient cars instead of these monsters.
As of yet, I have not sat in one of these so the fact that I am 6′ 2” does not escape me, since the car is only two feet longer than I am tall. Hopefully, the dealers get them in soon and I make that decision in person.

When you are not going anywere this car is all we would need.
Please can we have one or two now.
Thanks: Robert
Well, I am going to test drive one this Sunday in Walnut Creek California and am anxious to see how much room there is, how it handles, and inpsect the safety features. I first saw these in Europe while on vacation and was intrigued.
I hope the experience is a positive one.
