Smart Car test drive offer a waste of time…

December 31st, 2009

Sounds like easy money: go test drive a Smart Car and get a $25 Target gift card. So I decided to drop into the Smart Center in Sugarland, Texas to do a test drive and qualify for the gift card. What a waste of time that was! Turns out they only do test drives between 9am and 2pm and by appointment only, meaning the only way I or any other person with a typical job working business hours could do a test drive is to take off of work. So I guess if they only do test drives during a short window during business hours the target market for these things must be unemployed pot-smoking hippies eating granola and wearing Birkenstocks?

Moral of the story is that Smart Center Sugarland sucks, much like the cars they sell. Unless you are going for that Euro-trash chic look you can certainly find something better than these glorified go-carts.
