I knew a guy who got sick of people pulling out in front of his Harley, so he put a 12V truck horn on it
some lady in a cadellac started pulling out in front on him a few weeks later
he blew the truck horn
she stopped and looked
she didnt see no truck
and she pulled out right in front of him
end of the harley, he landed about 60 feet down the street in some bushes.
the horn survived.
BTW, on the SmartCar - 75HP is a LOT for a car that small. The old '60s VW bugs only had 55 HP engines, and they could do 82mph flat out.
speaking of VW, they had a concept car a few years back, 2 seater with the passenger sitting behind the driver
if I remember correctly it got 100 km on one liter of diesel fuel. It looked sorta like the original batmobile
That comes out to 240 mpg!
