Smart (?) Car
Get a load of this little Smart car. SF Gate did a feature article on its rising popularity. Now, I'm all for smaller, smarter cars, but this one doesn't seem to make any sense. It costs somewhere in the mid $20,000 range and it gets a mere 40 MPG. Exqueeze me? I'm gonna pay $25k for a car that barely seats 2, has 60hp and only gets me 40mpg? That's just plain silly. Do these cars have a chance of being popular outside of a small niche of the population willing to make a somewhat rediculous and expensive social statement? In a word, no.
