Again, this is what happens when we let the government dictate way too much in the private market. If people WANT to be in the middle of a balloon sandwhich when their car is hit, they'll buy the balloon car. If a lot of people buy X-companies balloon car over Y-companies non-balloon car, Y-company will start making their own balloon car.

Soon we'll have cars that'll spit out safety foam like in Demolition Man, all in the name of "safety", when the greatest support of driver safety has nothing to do with the car, its the driver's themselves.

In any case, 2800lbs is just a scary thought. Thats still too heavy.

It's kinda sad nowadays how anything less than 3000lbs is considered "light", especially when there is a WORLD of a difference in driving feel between a 2400lb car and a 2800lb car.

As far as safety goes....if I wanted to feel safe on the roadways, I'd DD a 1970 Oldsmobile Delta 88. DARE anyone here to try to hit me in that tank.
