A New Mexican miscellany, offering eclectic linkage since 1999.

SF New Mexican:

Smart says poor crash scores for tiny ForTwo were ‘expected’. It wouldn’t be so worrisome if every other car on the road wasn’t a pickup or an SUV.  In a couple of years of high gas prices, it will cease to matter.  At least you know about the fact up-front. Makes me think of the amazing exploding Ford Pinto, where any rear impact over 25mph would result in a fireball of gas tank rupture.  How many of those runts were ‘first cars’ for teens.
