Well, I´m on the market for a new car. My Ford is getting old and the cost of going to the mechanic is adding up. I´m trying to hold off a bit to find a more fuel efficient one. I´ve tried to buy American to support the auto workers, but it´s getting harder and harder.

A friend of mine converted her car to electric, but it does not go very fast. I need to have a real pick up when on the freeways here. There is nothing quite so thrilling as having a 16 wheel trailor truck bearing down on you, so the need to quickly maneuver is imperative.

Well your cars and ours are quite different really. We can´t even imagine driving 5 liter cars. I sometimes think of buying a Smart and give up on this idea each time.

 wow, do you have smarts in turkey?

Sure, but when you visit here the percentage goes slightly down.

 why is that? i make sure i will loose a few stones on my bottom before i go there so i would fit in.

Yeah, get one and be a smart pain in the ....

 well, sure, im smarter than this your post above

an expression like "a smart pain" is though quite attractive

you meant a smart pain in the baydan shoes?

nay, thank you, smart is too tiny for me, im a big girl, plus, when i think of a car i think of my family, not like you only of a personal desire

One would hope not for the sanity of the Turks
