What I do for my "Vehicles" categories is have one extra field for "features". The features then has checkboxes for all of the items within it. ie: power windows, leather, AM/FM/CD, Multi-CD player, A/C, etc. The options in the "Features" field varies depending on category (ie: cars, motorcycles) In the display of the field, I have it so it lists each featured item one after the other with a "•" between. This gives it more of a textual paragraph style which takes much less room.

The end result is like this:
Features: • A/C • Leather • AM/FM/Cassette • AWD •

I love the look of your site. Very well done!

How do you list them in a row like that?

Looks good - I see that you may need to check it all out using something like borowsershots.org. In my firefox and safari, the menu bar does not hit the end (lined up).

I used a little customization for the extra field, which in my case is field #10:
(edited, the bullet keeps converting in the post, but I use the ASCII equivalent which is "& # 149 ;" without the quotes and the spaces)
Code:
<strong>{$extra.10.title}:</strong><br>&nbsp;<br>
	{foreach key=10 item=item from=extras}
		{foreach key=key item=item from=$extra.10.value}
			•&nbsp;{$item}
		{/foreach}
	{/foreach}
Hope that helps! (My site is still running v3.1.10 though, so this may be different for v4.x)

-Mike
