I am going to post this thread in the "off-topic" section cause there was someone that b-i-t-c-h-e-d about the fact that I 'shared' something personnal into a different area of the forum *insert rolling eye emoticon here*, so to keep everyone happy, here I am
My trip was pretty good - other than the fact that I was going to Montreal from portsmouth NH *seacoast* to attend my father's funeral. My little smartie performed sooooo well. I was totally in shock at how easy going "keppy" was into the torrential rains I gotten myself into midway through Vermont. It rained HARD... Flash floods here and there, all you could see was a "freeway of running rivers" undermeath me. I was actually scared!!! Keppy never skid, always was strong and the cabriolet never leaked a drop.
My trip was 6 1/2 hours and I only stopped for gas once right before the border.
for 13 hours of driving, it costed me a whopping $61.76 and I averaged 43mpg. Not bad eh? ;)
I had mixed reactions from passing people on the freeway, I had many smiles and 2 of them flipped me the bird elegantly... I donno why they did, cause I was in the slow lane and doing about 65-70. I guess they just didnt understand the "smart" since the were driving fords F-350 ( them 2 drove the same truck! ) and had gun racks in the back... I ignored them cause I didnt want to be "shot" lol...
It felt really good to drive my smart - I love it even more now. She took me there safely, cheaply, with a great deal of fun... She has learned a lot about myself, I talked to her all the way there and back... My secrets are safe with her.
I am so glad I bought a smart - for once I feel like one!
