I thought it would be neat to see different pictures of people packing their Smart Car.. I saw a YouTube.com clip of a challenge between a Smart Car & a Hummer, I thought it was cute. Anyhow here my first time packing my Smart Car, title â€œTrip to Samâ€™s Club and $300 laterâ€. We went shopping for Super Bowl Day to have a cookout with some friends who are coming over.

Phxbirds: Don't let them sit on the tailgate unless they are very skinny.

Linda, my wife won the contest to correctly guess the weight of the Halloween pumpkin at "Trader Joe's", a specialty market chain in the West.
This is it in the back of our car (note this is a 450 with a smaller luggage compartment). We took this home with the tailgate and the glass closed

BTW: the weight is 216lbs.

We had a ball !

Holy pumpkin Batman!!! Good thing it had a rigid board under it otherwise maybe the engine cover might collapse.
So how did it handle?

We had the board under it so we could slide it into the car. We blocked it on both sides so it could not roll from side to side.
I didn't really notice any difference in handling. I did drive with a little more caution.
