[BuzzBomb]

So, I have been a SMART owner for a month now but I have noticed a common set of questions that I am asked by everyone. I wonder if everyone is having the same experience.

1. Do you take that on the freeway?
2. Is it an electric car?
3. Do you have enough head room?
4. How many miles do you get?
5. How much did it cost?

Do you have any other questions that you may be asked?

* Is that your car?

[a2jack]

Buzzbomb. Fun thread. Helidrvr I also think "Is that your car", iis the #1. Than all the other questions follow.

While in a store I've looked out the window to see people gathered around our car. Then someone will stick their head in the door and ask who owns the little yellow car out there. (In other words hurry up and come out. We have questions)

This is fun. A2Jack.
