I guess punctuation, grammar, spelling, capitalization, intelligibility, etc., are not strong points on this blog.

I made an illegal U turn in front of a policeman. A little bit nasty police officer pulled me over, got my license and registration. When he came back, he asked me to get out, now I thought I was really in trouble, but he just wanted to ask questi...

The only real negative thing about the smart is our strict diesel laws here in the USA. I'd love to have my smart with a diesel engine and get 60mpg. In the early 80's I had a VW diesel Rabbit that got 50 mpg. It was not all that fast but I did ge...

Hi SATO, (you knew I'd rise to this fly) OK... when an article reads "Smart" I turn on the warning system. It's "smart" is it not? The transmission is the easiest thing to criticize, especially by drivers of big, soft, standard automatics. The d...

What to do when the cops follow you home!

Let me tell you that I've never done anything to merrit police intervention and even be folloed home!
My wife and I were coming back from Lowes and pulles into our neighborhood, not really noticing who was behind. We reached our driveway and I proceeded to back my Smarty into the garage when I looked away from the rear view mirror to see the police cruiser stop in front of my driveway... And the guy got out! AGGHH freak out time! did I do something wrong? did I run someone over and not feel it?… Continue

I want to put a Doug Thorley header on our smart which is OK with her "as long as it's not too loud." I haven't been able to hear what a smart sounds like (as compared to stock) with a Thorley and I don't have any experience with Dynamat. I think you have experience with both (?). I'd very much appreciate your best estimate of the interior noise as compared to stock with a single pipe Thorley and Dynamat on the engine cover and inside the tailgate. Thanks so much.

To all of us on these forums, let me tell you that Smartmadness is one of "US". I know that if they could be at every smart meet right there next to us discussing the next mod, the latest gadget, the wacky one offs, they would be... in every state, city, and town.

I think it speaks for its self
