I'd like to see that test with an f150 against a smart car.


Hell, my truck against a smartcar.
Unfreakingreal... That's an average-sized car hitting a golfcart at 40 mph. What in the heck do they expect is going to happen?...

Wow. I wouldn't put my family in it.... wait a minute, I couldn't. It's just a two seater.

One of those smart cars almost got crash tested by my F350 the other night.
