Default Re: Has the Falcon become too narrowly focussed?

you don't understand physics very well going by how you look at crash data.

i have seen the utube clip of new small car v old large car. how is that relevant? i'm comparing new small 5star v new large 5 star.

a car crashing into a solid fixed object is the same as hitting something of the same mass. it doesn't simulate a small object hitting a larger heavier object moving in the opposite direction.

i would suggest even though bf is 4 star, it would fare better than the fiesta.

fuel economy? i said 3-5L difference. you say 4-5L difference. either way, at 5L difference per 100km, its $3 extra per 60L fill. its nothing. people that say otherwise can seem to easily afford an extra carton of beer or pack of smokes etc. i'd rather drive a larger car knowing my family is just that little bit safer.

FG falcon is one of the safest cars on the road.
