The first time I saw a smart car was when I was in Italy 5 years ago. They are all over the place there as gas is much more expensive in Europe than here. I thought the smart cars looked like toys. You wouldn't get me on the Dan Ryan Expressway, the Tri-State Tollway or on I-90 heading into Indiana from Chicago in one of the smart cars with all of the semis that travel on those roads. I already have enough gray in my hair, one ride in a smart car on a Chicago area expressway, and I would have a headful of gray hair. Not that there is anything wrong with gray hair.
