SUV Life Raft


This is a new Smart Car that is manufactured in the Lorraine, France. Mecedes-Benz has made a million of them over the last ten years. Last January they went on sale in the US, and I've seen them popping up in Chicago. They are very popular in France where gas costs about $10 per gallon.
A Smart Car could be the perfect second car for owners of big
SUV gaz-guzzlers. SUV owners could fit a Smart Car in the cargo area of their car. When their SUV runs out of gas, the Smart Car could be used like a life raft. This could run for a week on the amount of gas that the gas-guzzler would use to go to the grocery store !

They're big in the Netherlands, too. Rather, they're small in the Netherlands, but there are lots of them.
