New to Smart fortwo. Need info on RV carriage

Hi, We are jackie and Skip Tamm. Full time RV'ers. Want to put Smart on back of our Volvo Semi, but need the CG for proper position. We have the 451 so must go lengthwise along Semi be. Can anyone help? Please??

Happy Trails,
Jackie, Skip and Seumas (our Westie)

Can anyone supply info about the center of gravity? I know lots of RV'ers have Smart, but they are the older 102" version, not the 106" version that we have. I SPECIFICALLY need the Center of Gravity information, or balance point fore and aft.

Thanks

I have a large PDF file of the 122 page 2008 Tech manual. I went thru it closely and couldn't find any information like you requested. Talks about welding on the Tridion Cell and lots of other stuff, but NO CG info. Sorry . . .

Figured CG, now carrying Smart!

We figured the Smart CG and now have the turntable done. Done in Central Florida. Anyone interested in having this done to be legal when carrying a 106" Smart, this is the way to do it. How do I post a picture here?
