Drive Smart

Drive a Smart car, from Daimler Chrysler. You can reserve the SmartforTwo car in the US for $99.

Or maybe not ... the Smart Car is cute and the few that have made it to the US have been quite the attention hoggers because of their novelty but is it really a smart choice for drivers that are concerned about the environment as well as their wallet? Apparently not...
It's hard to ignore the fact that for around the same price, a car such as the Toyota Yaris can beat the Smart on fuel economy, while offering better handling and more room for storage.
Others have also opined that it is a pretty dumb idea for the US. Ok.. at the very least, you can enjoy this creative ad for the Smart ForTwo from the UK.
