Woot my orphan is in



I just picked up my orphan at Smart Car in Edison. The car is loaded with all of the Smart options. This is more than I would have wanted but why not. So far the car is great and Danny took real good care of me. So whoever ordered the fully loaded passion in Blue and decided not to buy it thanks.

Man that is SO cool! Congrats.

I REALLY hope lots of San Antonio "reservations" fall through. I need a car sometime before 09.

I was on the orphan list for 2 months. I told the dealer at first I wanted only a yellow passion. Then went back the next week and said any passion would be fine. I followed up every week with a call or an email. Then just before a big business trip, I get the call. The dealer tells me he has a Blue/Black passion with all the options do I want it? I think for a second and say yes. He sends an email with the vin number and purchase amount. I get insurance and wire the money to my personal account. Get the check, get the insurance card and pick up the car.

This happened so fast and unexpected I have yet to name my orphan.

I am going to see my 7 year old nephew today maybe he will have a name for her.
