Want a Smart car? It can take 18 to 24 months to get one as demand soars in the US for a car that can get 40-45 miles per gallon.

I blame it all on Carter.

Only 40MPG? My old Honda gets a lot better than that. (Of course it is missing two of the wheels....)

In 18 years you'll need to be getting smart boats.

They have those. I saw a story about a powerboat that was totally solar. The front part (where you're not really supposed to stand) was all solar panels.

As could be expected, however, it wasn't cheap.
