VancouverSMRT Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Hooray! I have a new smart car! I am happy to be able to sign in and say hello. My name is Rick and I live in downtown Vancouver as you can tell by my nick. Just got the car last week and have a whopping 150 km on it now. With any luck I will be heading up to Whistler on the weekend so I can see how it performs on a short trip up the hill. Mine's a Passion Cabriolet and I got A/C, upgraded sound, leather seats & a few other goodies too. Not much left to get except maybe the Brabus stuff, but that doesn't appeal to me too much. Anyway, see you all around the forums! Quote
mixed Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Welcome to the board, the fun of the car is in the driving, enjoy it lots... Quote
RoySkyBell Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 Hi VancouverSmart. Welcome! Let us know how your trip goes. Are you loading the car down with lots of stuff? Quote
MikeT Posted June 14, 2005 Posted June 14, 2005 It's excellent that you found us! How was that anyway? Google? Referral? In any case, we look forward to your presence here at at upcoming events. Care to go to Seattle with us this weekend? Quote
VancouverSMRT Posted June 14, 2005 Author Posted June 14, 2005 Well, I have thrown a few groceries in it so far, but nothing major. I may go to Edmonton this summer and I can't think of any reason NOT to take the car, so we'll see at that time how much I can get in. Although, I think the "trunk" will be sufficient for the couple of bags that I will take. I walk almost everywhere I go, so the car won't get used too much. My daily commute consists of a 12 minute walk to work so no car needed for that. I will head out to Chilliwack on occasion to see family and then there will be other errands etc. but the 150 K that I have put on in the last 5 days would probably be high compared to what I expect to be normal use, but we'll see. I am enjoying the car quite a bit and waiting for some sunshine so I can take the top down! Oh right, I found this site using Google. I was searching for smart car clubs and this one was fairly prominent on the return list. Quote
