Holy crap louisville center!

[SmartCard]

About 40 smarts on the property - Wow! Must have been one for every color and style! Should be lots of happy customers driving away in the coming days.

Anyone here claiming one this week?

Alas, not me; but when I was there last week (for my first long test drive), Larry said they were expecting a big delivery. Said they were still servicing a lot of the Ohio folks until their smartcenters open - lucky bucky's!

Interesting - both Ohio centers have been open for about 6 weeks.

There is no Cincy smart center at this point; we only have the Cleveland and Columbus centers. Cincy reservations should go to Columbus until the Cincy store opens in August.

if Louisville is servicing part of Ohio for the time being, it just made sense to me that they would cover the Cincinnati area, since it's the closest to Louisville. does that make any sense????

where ELSE would Louisville service in Ohio? Cleveland? Toledo? Eaton?

City center to city center, you are correct - Louisville is closer by a whopping 4 miles. However, not if a person lived on the East side of Cincy. Just makes sense to me an Ohio center would handle Ohio reservations (not to mention saving $250 in dealer doc fees), but what do I know?

PS - moot point if/when the Cincy center opens in August.

PPS - the only reason we were being handled (and I'm not kidding!) by Louisville originally was because the Columbus center wasn't open when deliveries started.

oh, i agree....only makes sense. but if that were true, then why all the Central Illinois customers coming to Indy rather than Chicago?

decisions making sense is NOT a prerequisite at smart usa.......maybe they should change the name of their company from 'smart usa' to 'questionably intelligent usa'?

smart center Louisville has delivered 90 cars of which 12 are in Louisville.
