: Here are the stats, sport. Looks like F-250's are a great way to die.
: This table displays driver death rates per million registered vehicle years (2 vehicles registered for 12 months each yield 2 vehicle years) in 1994-97 models during calendar years 1995-98
Here's the lie!114?Wrong!
: Ford F-250- 114 CARL,YOU"RE EITHER LYING(i hope not) OR YOU REALLY CAN"T READ A CHART!!THERE WERE ONLY 44 DRIVER DEATHS IN F-250s per MILLION whereas THERE WERE 68 TOTAL DRIVER DEATHS IN A HONDA CIVIC AND YOU WERE TWICE AS LIKELY TO DIE IN A MULTIPLE CAR COLLISION,WHICH IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING AND THE REASON I DEFEND MY FAMILY WITH LARGER VEHICLES.
: Honda Civic-47............ FALSE!ACTUALLY 68 DEATHS!

24 Deaths-Multiple car crashes +
20 Deaths-single crashes = 44 Deaths
12 THESE ARE INCLUDED in the above single crashes
Read it and weep,Carl.You're twice as likely to die in a Honda Civic when it's a multiple car crash than in a single car crash because they're made out of lesser materials with less material between you and the car you're colliding with.Like THAT anecdote?AND I REALLY HOPE YOU WEREN'T INTENTIONALLY LYING TO THE FORUM PEOPLE HERE TO TRY TO WIN AN ARGUMENT! Now go re-think your position!(:^) Don-ohio
