Can I drive?

[orngandblack]

Just wondering how many of the smart owners allow other people to "take it for a spin"? and what do you say to them if you don't fell like letting them?

[chrisdfw]

I tell them the smart car's computer is getting used to the way I drive so I can't let them confuse it during these formative miles...and then I give them directions to the Dallas smart dealer.

sit, ride...OK...Drive...not even the wife...yet! Road trip this WE were she will drive it then!!

If anyone had the b@lls to ask to drive my car, I'd quickly reset their expectation... "Hey, I don't ask to sleep with your wife." (Kidding.) If you want a softer approach, tell 'em that your insurance won't cover other drivers.

lol what if they let me sleep with their wife, what then?

If I know them, I say sure. (remember, I've already let my 11-year-old nephew loose with it on his own...) No one I don't know has asked yet.

It's just a car, after all. I loan out my cars all the time.

Answer questions yes, let people sit in it yes, take them for a ride yes all with a smile. DRIVE!!!!!! WHEN THEY PRY THE KEY FROM MY HAND! HA!

[LinuxGuy]

I just tell them that the dealer has Demo's they can drive!

If anyone asks me to let them drive mine, I'll refer them to SmartJJ in Texas!

Count how many teeth she has, and then make an educated decision.
