Smart Car, Umm no!

Five satr safety rating from the IIHS? Is this for the car it's self cause from this video any occupants look like they would be wishing they were dead! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju6t-yyoU8s

I hate this freaking car! It's useless. With three cylinders and a top speed of 90mph they have no business in the U.S. People drive crazy here especially in Ca. Have you seen one of these things shaking down the Hwy, it's nuts? When these cars are in a crash they are done. I'm sure the insurance companies love this so they can charge you an arm and leg assuming you have any left after a crash..

BIG FREAKING WHOOP!!!! So you mean to tell me your willing to sacrifice legroom, passenger space and safety for a few more miles per gallon? Not me my friend! There are plenty of other cars you don't have to be on a waiting list for that you can buy that have great mileage and plenty of space and have a 4-5 star safety rating. How much of a trend chasing tight ass can you really be?

In ways this car is like the Hummer in reverse. People bought the Hummer cause they wanted to be cool no matter how crappy the mileage and how unreliable it is. Hey i'm cool and had nothing ells better to spend my money on. I'm feeding the machine and to stupid to realize it!

Now, it's man gas is expensive and I will act like an ass and buy the tinest car I can as long as it's advertised to be cool and hip no matter how unsafe and lame it is. I'm now driving one very small by product of the way the machine has let us down. (click on the link below to see one of many huge examples of how the machine is letting us down)
