Now if the builder had used the extra length for a small block V-8, he'd be on to something. 71 horses (or whatever the European specs are - before someone tells me about it) pushing all the extra weight would be pitiful.

I like it.... needs a 1yd cement mixer in back... or dump bed....comments on 71Hp are relevant... perhaps it has twin drive trains one for each rear axle set

My country property requires fairly substantial "loads" of stuff from feed store, Lowes/Home depot etc... it would be too funny to go get the smaller loads in one of these... If the price was in line with what a real Smart costs I would be interested... ever price a thing like a Gator?

With the understeer the standard Smart has, imagine how bad it would be with a contraption like this.

If it is single drive train, I can't imagine they would have gone to the trouble without throwing in the Brabus turbo setup. That could handle a bit of a payload.
