Re: side impact test results

I'll have to say, as a fireman, the first thing I checked was this before test driving.....the wife is in a Volvo XC 90 and I drive an FJ.......
If you ever want to know what the safest cars are on the market??? Watch what your local firemen put there families in..........
Haven't seen an FJ in a accident but I've seen all the other ones....Volvos (peace of mind ) and now the FJ.
Good news,
Scott

Re: side impact test results

Great to see that all of us that get into a situation illustrated in the original post will have a decent percentage of making it out with minor injuries. Payce!!
