I saw a 'smart car' last week. It looked like a death trap and the three wheel nuts thing
confirmed it.

I saw a 'smart car' last week. It looked like a death trap and the three
wheel nuts thing
confirmed it.

1. We have 'em by the dozen here in NE NJ. The shock of seeing them has
worn off for me. Now, they're just little go-carts-galore.

2. When I put a new gas tank on my six cylinder Honda Valkyrie motorcycle a
few months ago, I played with the idea of putting a Smart Car emblem on
there instead of the stock Valkyrie emblem. Didn't do it, but hey... I
thought it was funny.

They apparently toss the things in the canals as a drinking game in
Amsterdam.
I thought this was a joke when I first heard it but apparently not.

I'm starting to see them here in LA which means there must be a bunch of
them on the road.

They breed, given a favorable climate and enough food. Then they form herds.
Soon, they will begin to mutate. The fear is they will eventually become
immune to antibiotics.

I'll check that with Dutch friends I have in Holland and see if it's
true. I would imagine that with the things that ****ed up blokes do that
in the past they would have been tipping French snails in the canal , ie
Citroen 2CVs, as they must weigh about the same. Thinking now I have
heard of similar with various light cars in the past, and a bit more
thinking and I've been involved in such antics in the past myself.

BTW Smart for2 is 3 wheel nuts studs/wheel, for4 is 4 wheel nuts studs
/wheel, at least here in the UK.

The one I saw had Ontario plates. That neighbor north and south of here.

I've passed a few of them here in TX as well. No shock, but pretty clear
if one darted out from a side street in front on my 8500#+ truck it
would get punted like a football and probably end up on someone's roof.

Around here (Bergen County, NJ) the Smart Car is carried by the huge
Mercedes dealer. Sort of tells you something about "Smart = Status"
for some folks.

Hey, my best buddy in high school owned a Hillman Minx. It had 3 lugs
on each wheel and the lefts were left-hand threaded. It didn't do over
about 35mph, but it never lost a wheel. Gawd, what a POS... but it
was made of real steel!

That looks like a Toyota logo. Maybe a Rav4? Not a lot of vehicles with
rear mounted spares.

Man, what a way to waste an hour and lose a pint of tears in
laughter...

Some of my faves were the Innocent box, Obama cue cards, wide-angle
lenses, "dead peoples things for sale" sign, Little Ahnold with big
Wilt and Andre, and the Pluto billboard.
