LOL perfect excuse not to get a car that looks like a shoe.

If I can't fit at least one 200 crate in the back, preferably two, it's useless to me! After driving my he-man mini van, it looks so tiny-like the cars on the Mini Mouse ride. Probably fun to drive though, maybe like a bug?

I have seen the smart cars around here but they never caught on. I would buy one of those new Fords like my sis just picked up (Fiesta) she gets 40mpg+ on the road and 30 something in the city. The new Fiat 500 and the Mini Coopers are really neat and nostalgic.

But I drive this everyday and it gets 21mpg in the city and almost 32mpg on the road with the A/C on and with 435hp it will out run most cars on the road in style!

Billy, What kind of car is this?? It is beautiful!!

Oh it is a 1951 Ford Tudor Sedan, I have a late model driveline, power everything, and it is fun as it comes to drive!

Every panel on the car has been modified some how and it has more parts off of other cars than you can think of. It has a 1957 Chevy front bumper, 55 Oldsmobile grille, 1950 Mercury grille opening, 1955 Pontiac trim, 1949 Lincoln steering wheel, I pie cut the front fenders and leaned them forward 2 1/2 ", shaved the door handles and emblems, frenched the headlights and taillights. Just too many things done on the car it would be easier to tell you what I left alone LOL!!

I have had this car since I was 13 and I am in my mid 40's now. This has not been the only car I have had but the one with the staying power!

I have a Smart and I love it. Hubby keeps telling me I am going to get a speeding ticket in it.

Before buying, check the safety rating of the car. All the money in the world won't replace a loved one killed in a car that wasn't big enough to protect them in an accident. Also, seeing where you live, check how it will handle on icy, snowy roads.

The Chef at the Country Club I work at has had one for a few years and loves it. He brings his clubs to work occasionally.

I was in an accident and had a fractured sternum and 2 fractured front teeth that had to have crowns. I'm a careful driver and never thought I'd be in an accident but she pulled out in front of me on a highway. I'm scared enough in my big car so would never drive one of the tiny ones.
