    I have a question for FIT owners. I test drove one a few months ago, but the to us, even the nicest trim level was still very noisy inside. Nicely equipped ( leather etc) was fairly high on the list, and the fit just didn't seem to come in that kind of trim level. But, wow were we impressed with how big inside it was.

    So, hows the road noise? Hubby and I had to practically shout at each other to have a conversation, and this pretty much killed the sale. Bought a mazda 3 instead.

    I.

    Triskeliongirl - You can cut a 2x4 to wedge between the sides in the back. I've done this with various vehicles to carry my bikes. When I'm not needing this mount, then I can just pull the 2x4 out.

    I thought about just mounting a fork mount to the back. I am just going to put on a roof rack.

    FIT is high on my list for my next regular car. SMART CAR isn't all that smart. I've heard people complaining that the milage is only 38 or so MPG. No trunk(boot) space. Other cars I'm looking at are Civic, Prius, some of the Toyota Scion line. My current car has nearly 200,000 miles on it. ouie I'm just hoping it'll go another 80,000 miles.

    being ever the dreamer that I am and so is my partner, she talked me into this fun looking thang. Move over Mr. GEOGE JETSON, and you too ASTRO. I'm #2316 for the hybrid model. Besides, gotta live up to wacky SoCal image. Yes it has cargo space to fit a bike. We are sooo totally serious about this. Fits two people, electronically limited to 85MPH, exceeds NHTSA crash testing (so they say)... It is soo cool looking. and 300MPG well almost. What's not to love??
