I've posted this elsewhere ... but it applies here:
An old work accomplice we nicknamed "The Wookie" is 6'8" and close to 280 lbs ... he barely fit in the passenger side but it appears the driver's side seat is a little lower and he fit well enough to consider buying the Smartie. He says he doesn;t fit in almost any other vehicle and was amazed at the space. If he can fit, almost anyone can. Here's a couple pics:
Passenger side:


Driver's side:

The smart is a great weight loss motivator. Already I have loss 40lbs and I plan to loose an additional 50 so I can feel and look good in my smartie. Call me vain but I don't care. It's a better way of living: Be smart, healthy & eco-friendly. :-)

The Wookie's knees look awful close to the dash but if he feels comfy, what the heck, right?

Regina: you go, girl! It's about feeling good about yourself and being around for awhile. More power to ya.

Thanks for that - still laughing. What a hoot.

That Mitsubishi notwithstanding, I'll be just peachy with a fortwo.
