Smart cars - Maggot - 09-05-2019
Imagine being on the highway and are in traffic with 2-3 tractor trailers doing 70mph in one of these things.

It's a covered GO-CART!
RE: Smart cars - Duchess - 09-05-2019
I wouldn't even consider owning one nor being a passenger in one. I feel like someone would have to have a death wish to want something like that.

But would you consider throwing a leg over the back of my Harley?
That car probably weighs a bit more
RE: Smart cars - Maggot - 09-06-2019
With that car you can just pu each side and park it anywhere

Sure, I would. I used to date a guy who had a Harley. I want to call it a sportster if there is such a thing. It had king & queen seats and I thought I was the cat's ass.

I had a little geo metro for a while. I loved it. Drove it while I lived in Seattle. I could park it anywhere and the gas mileage was great!
That car seem super small though. It would feel wierd unless all of the cars started getting smaller.

Many Many years ago, I had a Renault 4cv, that the top flat out speed was like around 54⁄55 with a tail wind!
So would (could) not be in the 70 mph lane! (That toy above wouldn't want to do 70 in either! Renault was bigger)

I had the first four cylinder Civic, they are actually collectible now. They are twice the size now. (so am I )
RE: Smart cars - Duchess - 09-07-2019
I wouldn't want a car that's any smaller than the one I've got now.
RE: Smart cars - Carsman - 09-07-2019
That 4CV had a "21" HP engine in it, and actually had a hole in the bumper to allow the Jack crank rod with a "T" at the end of it that went into a fitting on the engine to hand crank the engine over if the battery ever died.
I had occasion 2 times to hand crank it. It worked.
The things one remembers.

From one extreme to another! (Doesn't fall in the Smart Car category)
Years ago I also had a 63 Vette, that had a 340 Hp engine, that was lightning fast !
