: I believe car and truck criteria are different, car standards being HIGHER, and the little compact Saturn gets the same five star rating- proving that weight and safety don't necessarily go hand in hand- look around that site a little more. You'll find it very enlightening, if you choose to drop your preconceived notions and absorb the information being offered.

Nope,Carl!They are rated by likelihood of INJURY (very important wouldn't you agree?) to the body,like they should be.You are very stubborn.Go to that site and look at a 1995 Honda Civic and you'll see only a 3 star rating for yourself.Much more likelihood of injury.NOW!I've proven my point and I have no more time to waste on you.But possibly someone else,not so stubborn,might have their life or a family member's saved by going to the facts and figures.Anytime you wanna run that Volvo into my 4800 lb.F-250,I'm ready for ya'.But make your last will and testament out first!FOR YOUR FAMILY'S SAKES!.....Didn't you get ANYTHING out of that narrative about the Lincoln hitting the bull?Sad!.....Sad!
