Waste of Space

If you haven’t heard the buzz by now, I’ll point you to Smartusa.com.

Miranda and I took some pictures of Sunday’s event in Hyde Park, Tampa. Check them out in my Flickr Album.

…and if you’re concerned about the safety of driving in such a small car, don’t be. Odds are that if you drive a regular sized car, you’re just as likely to be injured/killed if hit by a truck or SUV. However, you stand a better chance of survival in the Smart because it’s more maneuverable and literally a large roll cage!

Check out this 70 mph crash into a concrete wall on YouTube…..yes, I’ll be getting a Smart when they become available.

It’ll cost @ $13,500 and get @ 50 mpg. My GTI that I drive now cost about $22,000 and gets @ 25 mpg. See the savings?
