Dealers Announced Next Week?

This story ran in the Omaha World-Herald yesterday.

http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_pag...u_sid=10201465

Here is the quote - "Ken Kettenbeil, director of communications for Smart USA, confirmed that there is 'a dealer candidate from Omaha.' He said the list of dealers the company has selected will be announced next week."

Hopefully that's true - that'll take a lot of weight off of people's minds.

It appears that the dealer announcements got pushed back one week.

The 8-foot, 8-inch Smart Fortwo can park with its nose to the curb.On Tuesday, Tal Anderson, chairman of Performance Auto, confirmed that the company is in the running. It has been advertising for "Smart car representatives," or salesmen, since early November.

Anderson said he is "excited about the possibility of joining the Smart USA network. We anticipate a decision in the next few days. In the meantime, we are currently interviewing potential employees in hopes of being selected."

He declined to comment further until Smart announces its dealers.

Take everything you hear from smart USA call center about future events with a grain of salt. I tend to believe the director of Communications.

I say why?

The director of communications has already been proved to be dead wrong...Twas he who clearly responded to Kwagar that the announcements would be yesterday 10 Dec.....hummm me thinks you keep defending folks who are acting ---dare I say it---incompetently
