Calling all insider members

Time to Jump guys. Just like several of you Jump when one of those Negative post on Yahoo comes up, Someone just put his up on smartcarinsider

Quote:
Warning for all smart owners....You must read this
I am a 2009 Smart owner. This has been the worst purchase in my entire life. Here is why:
1) Golf cart on the Freeway, Very uncomfortable, Bad back already..
2) Compromise for only few miles per gallon, cost is high
3) No special financing like Toyota and Nissan incentives..
4) Premium Gas, High Financing by Benz, Savings are smaller and smaller
5) cannot pick up friends, any time of niece for a ball game ( only two..)
6) you will look like a Dork, every one will laugh at you

and finally, I listed it 5 K below my purchase price, No one wants this piece of ####
So, dont wast you time, cancel your reservations...

THIS IS RATED WORST CAR BY YAHOO... TRUST ME, VERY VERY UNCOMFORTABLE...
Don't make my mistake, Double check your post before you reply, you cant go back and edit.

You could just say "To Late I already have one" or "Dang, I wish you had told me 24,000 miles ago"

But I'll leave it up to you

I still cant believe any one used Yahoo any more

I like using Yahoo groups but nothing else. I realize the Smart is not for every one but why did he go out of his way to tell this to Smart owners? If it had been any other car, would he go to the site for enthusiats of that car and post a similar post as above?

I will check out the Smart Car Insider site.

I don't quite understand why folks are waisting their precious time responding to these opinionated clowns. You know what you like, and we know what they don't. So what.
It's almost like reading how someone doesn't like vanilla ice cream.

Who cares.

Ummm, I want to clarify: by "opinionated clowns" I was refering to the people posting dispareging remarks, or writing critical but very biased articles for mass publication, about our Smart cars.

I would NEVER refer to members of this forum as being clowns, (with the possible exception of either myself or this BigPanda chap).
