    crash test ratings

    Hears some food for thought. Today i was watching TV when one of those car commercials came on advertising how safe there new car was, and i was curious how safe is our ride or is she a deathtrap?

    It holds up well enough against a Civic head on at a 90 mph (45/45) impact at least. I don't think it's gonna win against any of Ford or GM's land yachts though.
