I placed my GPS Nav slash cell phone on the windshield to the left of the steering wheel, just above the AC vent. I find it is out of the way there and provides me with the turn by turn directions from that location just fine. Incoming calls are rou…
Well, I don't think I like the Smart's transmission. In automatic mode, it will go into 5th-gear at 35 miles per hour, so I shift it manually. When I get to a red light, I forget I'm manually shifting it, and the RPM's go way too high. It is burdens…
Since I purchased mine on August 4th of this year, I haven't seen another single one in the Nashville area, although I know there have to be a few around. When I visited friends and family members from August 7th to the 12th in Hampton, Georgia, I s…
My blue smart car is the second blue one in my town. I have only seen two others here which adds up to 4. Monterey Bay, CA has a few more and I have seen a green one from over there. They are getting more popular in southern CA and I expect that the…
Actually no. I'm pretty new to the Nashville area. I went to see my dentist yesterday, and then I drove to the Great Escape in downtown Nashville. I wouldn't have been able to go to these places without my GPS. The traffic was terrible, but I could…

I've recently moved to Nashville. I collect DVD's, and music. I can still play the acoustic guitar, although I haven't picked one up in about a year. My father, Vern Gosdin, was in the country music industry, and I too got involved with it.

Julie,
I agree, they need to step up their advertising. I know the dealer here in San Antonio has about 2 dozen cars on the lot and I haven't noticed too many of them moving.
Also, they seem to lose a lot of repeat customers because of the cost of…
I"ve been hearing a lot about dealerships closing all across the USA, and I have to say I'm quite concerned. Sales are WAY down, to the point where dealers can't cover their overhead.
Why hasn't Smart USA launched an advertising campaign? Don't the…
I agree with you, Herb. At first I was gentle on my smartie and my mpg was mid-30's. After I got used to driving it, I started having fun and was hard on the gas pedal doing 70-80 mph, quick starts getting on to the freeway, flooring it to downshift…
L. R., See my comment to Walter. Also, start pushing the car a lot harder. Your engine needs to be worked hard to loosen up and give you better mileage. Never mind the "soft-pedal" approach in "D". Go for the gusto in Manual mode. Works great in the…
I bought my 2008 SMART used with 14,000 miles on the clock. At first, I got about 25 mpg, so I took it to Mercedes for a check-up. The results came back as 36.9 mpg! I have no idea if they did anything to the car or not, but I too suddenly got city…
Above 65 mph mpg goes down, wind and it goes down, allowing your foot to get heavy, goes down. I drive in semi urban and get 38-40 all the time. But in the city stop and go, I accelerate very slowly and as the clutch disengages , I lift slightly so…
