They also fare poorly in almost all other crash testing too, especially in single vehicle accidents. About the only area where they do better than saloons is in crashes with saloons, and even then they're not as good as one might expect (although the saloon is invariably destroyed). Big and rigid isn't the best for passenger safety. Charlie. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
