The Car for Environmentalists

Here's just the car for all those Pandagonistas arrogantly sneering at SUV drivers: the smart fortwo. Don't laugh.

The promo materials does the best it can at making this car sound attractive: it's zippy. You can parallel park in a snap. Ain't it cute?

Of course, what it's not is family friendly. You aren't getting any car seats in this baby. But then, Amanda Marcotte doesn't want kids and doesn't like you having kids, either.

I wouldn't have minded this little car for my long commute to Dallas when I was doing that, but other than the commute, such a vehicle would be worthless.
