Everyone, please take a deep breath!

There is no need to panic! Keep repeating to yourself “It is only a Car… It is only a Car” Your life is not going to change greatly if your car shows up in January or later. Or, if your life does change, there may have been something wrong with it in the first place.

I am as anxious as anyone, but when I read some of these letters, I get a little creeped out. Pictures of empty or near empty, half-finished buildings, borderline stalking of salespeople, “my number is lower than yours” etc.

I enjoy reading this forum, but I think I may refrain for a couple of months and check back in after a little of the hysteria has died down.

Or not… I may have to keep reading just to see how weird it can get!

Happy New Year

Hmmm, I missed the hysterics too. There must be lower threshold of excitement in North Dakota.

Just admit your number 1376 and all will be forgiven ;)

I really don't know what my number is and I am not sure how to determine it. I never kept the emails. I confirmed my order in mid-Nov.

I will just have to wait. I really would hate to have to hitch the horses up to the wagon to go to Minneapolis when it is this cold anyway!

Well said. I have a Coke can that has been run over by a Smart for sale if anyone is interested, if not will go to Ebay! Also have a piece of toast with the image of a Smart Cabrio burned into it with Jesus at the wheel.

On that toast- Is that an orangish red cabrio with Jesus at the wheel? How in God's name did Jesus get it before I got mine- did he have a lower number, or did he have the ultimate insider edge?

Yeah its that mystery metallic orangish red. Well Im actually not sure on Jesus at the wheel, if it is a right hand drive he may just be the co-pilot.

I still have the underwear I wore to the street smart tour in ABQ.

If anyone's interested, I'd be willing to sell at the right price.
