Like I have said in the past The Biggest Bigs on this planet are North Americans, We consume 80% on the Worlds energy and produce 80% of the pollution.

Yeah, but we sure have some fun doing it!! Honestly, there are far worse pollution sources than our cars. The day they make a 1,500HP electric car, I'll be the first in line :cheers:

maybe you could start saving the planet by scraping that polluting pig and buying a smart car. go ahead, set the example. sorry to be disagreeable but i think America (and Canada as well) are examples of the cleanest industrialized nations in the world. ever been to mexico? there is a shining example of everything NOT to do. what about japan? been there too. not nearly as perfect as they would have you believe. don't be so sure we're the worlds worst. U.S. and Canadian companies are the standard (as they should be) for how we can produce virtually all that we need with minimal environmental impact. :rolleyes:

Its technically very sophisticated and very ridgid. It can handle a front-to-front crash with a Mercedes S-Class and the Smart passengers will most likely survive the crash.
"...most likely survive..." :rolleyes:
i'd give 3-1 odds on who would walk away from a head on between that and a shark!

Saw one in Bahrain a couple of weeks ago. Got a photo of it. Just need to scan it. On the back window in big letters was "Yukon on a diet" The cars look pretty cool, but I prefer my '69! A lot of Saudis driving C5s (they think they are the poopie,) some C4s and a couple of C3s here. Gas is cheap in Bahrain, about 85 cents a gallon.
