8 months after

hi all,

today is my 8 month anniversary of the delivery of my smart. got my first oil change yesterday at 5280 miles (bought the filter a week ago at my smart center, the smart tech was off on saturday)

i love my smart, 8 months later, unlike my wife, the smart is better to me than my wife. even today, i got 9 thumbs ups (that i saw) as i drove my smart (what other car gets thumbs ups?) (my last 2 cars, a MB 190E and a geo metro never got a single thumb!) i loved both other cars, but never got a thumb! (what provokes people to give a "thumbs up" to a smart in the first place?)

i went to indiana today and got over 5300 miles today (powerball tix).

now i will improve my smart with mechanical improvements, exhaust and intake replacements, i am weary of ECU mods. i want to keep my smart at 15" wheels, but get fatter tires, the skinny fronts don't howl under pressure, like my old metro,

i upgraded my smart from a pioneer self installed radio to a smart "10" radio. better AM reception, love the CD! i jam the CD on my interstate trips to get powerball tickets.

after 8 months of smart ownership, all i feel is LOVE.LOVE, LOVE!!!!
