My favorite things about smart: It is so much fun to drive and very easy on gas.

About Me: I work in the accounting department of a manufacturing company in Birmingham. I've worked at the same company for 35 years and have lived in this area all of my life. My wife and I love to travel.

My smart's name: It doesn't have a name (YET) but the tag is a UAB Blazer tag "HY IQ"

Only a couple of problems thus far - 1) the headlights are pointing down to much so I don't have but about 12 feet of visibility when driving at night and 2) the stability indicator came on this morning on the way to work. She is back down at the repair shop now and they are going to get these fixed today. Other than those two minor issues, she runs great and looks as good as new. I will post a new picture of her once the weather clears up. Thinking about posting it on the main forum as "What a SMART looks like after being hit by a SUV"!

I still don't have her back yet, but expecting to get her tomorrow. The clock was set when I first got her and I haven't had to reset it as of yet. Today, they put her on the computer down at the dealership to make sure all of the issues were addressed - hopefully, they reset the clock when they did all of this work. If not, I may experience the same problems. Will you be able to come to a meet and greet if we can get it scheduled after Thanksgiving? Hope so!

Welcome to the Bama Smarties group. Your car and mine are twins! I am hoping to get enough Smart owners to have a mini cruise soon - Are you interested? My car tag (if it ever gets here) is nearly the same as yours - HI IQ KR
