I guess for newer owners its a warranty issue. But as for regular repairs and servicing, I have a local garage that does all my work. I am 4 hours from the nearest certified repair shop. That shop also quotes prices about double that of my mechanic.
Smart cars aren't made from some sort of human-cylon biomechanical pod technology. They are just regular cars. I'm sure if all the MN smart owners picked a mechanic and asked him to polish up on his smart car knowledge, he would be happy to service ALL the area smarts.

If the organizers want to get a ton of free positive publicity about the rally( and maybe a strong dig about the lack of smart dealership support), fire me a PM. I don't want to get to long winded about it here.
I used to be in radio and worked doing PR for several local groups.

So far, there are 22 people signed up. A far cry from last years numbers. Remember, if you sign up by the end of April, you will get 3 tickets per person (registered) for Saturday's drawings. After April 30th, one per registered person.

Famous Erik, PM is sent.

Just finished the registration, Mary and I will be there in June. Looking forward to seeing old friends again. Is the Americinn the place to stay this time?

I picked the Super 8 just because I'm cheap.

John, that sounds good to us also, plus the Bierstube Stake House is just across the street. Looked at their wed site, good ole German food. See you there.
