On tonight’s show it’s the beginning of ‘oppo’ month. Miss Mercedes will be joining me on the show. I’m fascinated with the idea of what it’s like to DD a smart. So please if you have any questions for her or I ask them here!

Since it’s a little later then normal I will probably be live reading these during the show. So ask away.

Undoubtedly the Fortwo gets a lot of hate from Jalopnik, but what sort of reactions do you get in real life driving it?

What’s it like DD’ing a base 911?

Question for her: how do you get groceries and luggage and such in a Smart? Also isn’t it technically an acronym and therefore should be all caps like you’re shouting?

Question for you: who all are you having on for “Oppo month” and how do you go about having people on who aren't in your general area? Do you like Skype them and record the audio?

How comfortable is it while going 2.4 mph on the Ike?

Do you feel like other road users try to “bully” you on the road or simply don’t see you in the Smart?

Is merging onto a highway or into faster moving traffic as horrfying as I imagine it to be?

Is the gas mileage better than an average car? How practical is it (carrying things/people)?

Yes I use Skype if the person is able, and I record it. Oh and I will have MontegoMan and El_uly on, in that order, then I'm on vacation lol. I am going to ask tomorrow who Oppo thinks I should get the last week of February.

This wasn’t asked, but nope, I have not! But I know the guy who built that car, insane fabricator. :D

I didn’t cover it in the show, but it’s “smart” in all lowercase because that’s how smart says it should be lol. Technically, you are correct, but yeah, smart really doesn’t have an official explanation as to why they like everything lowercase!
