I've had Tbirds, Marquis, etc. and now my wife drives a Mustang. One of the things people tend to forget with the rounded, lump designs of most cars is that short people can't always tell where the corners are in tight places. We got the Mustang because the sharp lines on the front fenders and the spoiler on the back let her (all five feet tall) see where ends of the car are. It's actually her second one as the first one was destroyed by coming in contact with a GMC Suburban. It was then that I appreciated the heavier car with a little more bulk surrounding the passenger compartment. I'm not sure one of the econoboxes would have faired so well. The trend toward smaller, lighter vehicles, while saving fuel, I believe, will cost lives. -- Larry Miller --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/mixed text/plain (text body -- kept) message/rfc822 --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
