I'd say OUCH to anyone in any of those trucks...****...
If I had to choose, I'd rather be in the Toyota...that looked the least painful...
GM next...Dodge...and Ford was the shittiest....

Do you have the video for the 02 or 03 (the new 1500 Ram?) I hear they got better b/c mercedes owns dodge now and actually cares about it's consumers. What about the new 04 F 150? I wonder if that quiet steel helps it hold together this time.

This is just a guess, but I would say they were going 40 mph. Only because it says in the link, 40chevy...., 40tundra...., and so on.

the toyota looks the safest as much as i hate to say it...but then again most toyotas are built for safety..the gm is pretty close but geez look at the ford and dodge..thats depressing..the dash explodes in the ford and the dodge about falls apart to not to mention that it looks like the engine goes through the firewall in the dodge
