If the car fits, park it.

Is this an issue?

Sounds like a good idea if you don’t have a Garage.

I’m reminded of my cats trying desperately to sit in every empty box they see.

Those vehicles musty be REALLY light.

If he’s tall, he should just throw a tablecloth over it and eat off the roof.

Love it! I wouldn’t want a Smart, although I will say they’re handy because I see them squeezed into parking all over the place in European cities. But I’d never thought about the advantage of being able to take it into the house. Like a miniature horse.

His wife got the garage (for her full-sized car).

I’ve seen a YouTube video of one of these cars smashing I to a concrete barrier at 70 miles an hour. The damage was surprisingly light. They look ridiculous but they are actually very well-built cars that structurally are very strong

His wife might have turned the garage into a love den for when her boyfriend visits.

Right? Our old golf cart needs new batteries. I’ve seriously thought of replacing it with a used Smart Car. Just to putter around our gated neighborhood.

They are a heck of lot cheaper than nice golf carts. But.... more expensive to maintain.

The only problem with that is someone might mistake it for a blender.

I’m still waiting for a car that folds up into a briefcase.

If the Smart Car’s a rockin’, don’t come a knockin’.

Not often do you see Florida Man and Smart in the same headline.

I rode in a smart car. It was great and roomy as a passenger. They are great for driving around to do grocery shopping etc drive to the beach. I was surprised to learn they are made by Mercedes.

I always wondered where you'd put the groceries in one of those.
