Melanie We missed you at the last meet up. It was at Town Square and we luckily got no warnings

(same as if you don't pay the meter) I'm a little upset about it, especially considering we organize meet-ups there and the manager that was there the first time didn't disapprove. I asked the security guard why he ticketed me, he was trying to say something about "if someone else tried to pull into the spot and hit me... like a drunk from the Blue Martini"(??!?!). It made no sense and I was rather upset, but I thought I'd let ya'll know security guard #18 is a smartie ticketer at Town Square!

Guess I won't be leaving quarters in my tenytny smartie for the meters any more!

Aliante

I live in Aliante and got my white/silver cell cabrio about a month ago. What a fun car to drive. The only complaint is that it takes about 30 minutes to fill it up with gas. Two minutes to pump the gas and 28 minutes to answer all the questions from everyone at the gas station. I get kidded alot, like is that legal to drive on the street? Mind if I take you picture? Where do you buy a car like that? I putter along the roads everyday and really enjoy this fall weather. I read a law in Nevada that requires the passenger wheels be nearest the curb when parallel parking on a two way street.

Las Vegas chapter?

Just for grins I looked at the Las Vegas Chapter forum - not a single post. Do we need to change it, rename it or what? Thanks!

Where is the Las Vegas chapter?

I do not know where that is. Does it include the Las Vegas area since we do not live in Las Vegas?

well - we (my girlfriend and i) are coming to sin city!!!
at night of the 27th to 28th april we'll check in at the Riviera and stay till the 6th of may.
our first trip to the states... ;)

what do we "have to see" and where can we find the smart center?
sadfullly the car-rentals don't have smarties, so we must drive an ford focus on the 3rd to 5th of may. but i think, it's a bit more comfort, when we visit red rock canyon. :P

any more hints from you?

Welcome Blue!

The dealer was trying to get some club activities together, but I ended up having to work during their planning meetings, so not sure where we stand in that department. There was a meet-up with about 40 smartians and photo op at the Las Vegas sign a few months ago. (Missed that, too, unfortunately)

What part of town can we expect to see your blue baby?

Good to hear from you Little Blue. Have you done any mods to the Smart yet?
