@BlackMetalWarewolf thats what i thought until i saw 09 malibu vs. 59 bel
air. might not be 70’s, but still it blew my mind how unsafe the bel air
was. the malibu just chewed through it like it was plastic

PSthefirst1 says:

some cars like the Sentra have nothing but styrofoam under the plastic
bumper case… that is all that is protecting us from a car crash…
amazing…

@WJguy420 when i said “stupid driver” it’s stupid that take a curve
recomended at 35 km/h and take it at 140 km/h and said…. SUV its
dangerous it roll over for nothing….

@BlackMetalWarewolf it’s called crumple zones. They take the hit so you
don’t have 2 🙂

WJguy420 says:

i just rolled my jeep at 50mph… look at my videos, thats the jeep. i
still drive it everywhere, no problems at all. really…no problems after a
50mph rollover, thats why you buy a REAL vehicle.

I have a 2005 liberty limited, I got a limited because it has everything in
it and it looks much nicer, and they changed a little in 2005, it has the
chrome grill and chrome on the side, also leather, tire pressure monitor,
compass, outside temp, gas milage etc. we have 72000 miles on it already
without any problem at all.

Lower bumpers equal less ground clearance and some of us still like to go
off-roading in our cars. If they wanted to buy a small economical car that
is not very safe then that’s not my problem. They had the option to buy
something else, nobody forced them to buy a compact or small car. Don’t
punish the rest of us because some people like tiny cars that are not safe.

EagleEye Mcgee says:

The problem here is that SUV and truck manufacturers are using a loophole
in law to make bumpers too high. Law makers are to blame here.

WJguy420 says:

that is completely fucking retarded. In fact that may be THE most retarded
statement i have ever heard. i would like to know what your logic is in
this. SUVs and cars are built for completely different purposes. i like to
go and drive offroad and camp, getting into places that a gay little prius
couldnt. not only that people DO live in the snow and/or other areas that
you may need a 4WD vehicle. and SUVs have been changed as much as possible.
do yourself a favor… buy a jeep.

sampwell819 says:

rollover = stupid driver! i drive a jeep 95% of time and never rollover.
car cost higher in crash to repair. SUV is better in all type of crash
include crash in a tree. real 4×4 is better than AWD go back to school plz!

myfeeling4you says:

this is far from real world crash tests, firstly the jeep wasn’t braking
and the sonata didn’t have the brakes on, handbrake or foot brake

martin2991 says:

@BlackMetalWarewolf In my country they are illegal because its dangerous
for pedestrians and to the other cars aswell 😉 But i still prefer them ;)!!

WJguy420 says:

lol can AWD vehicles do this? watch?v=ap2csNm_TII watch at least one minute
of this video. ill say it again… buy a jeep.

off-road bumper

Adrian Plaut says:

i had a person in a newer car turn head on into my 1981 chevy malibu steel
bumper and the person in the newer car fell apart all over the road i had a
$20 scratch mark on the steel bumper so yes steel bumpers do hold up better

Wactaz says:

try getting a lada :P….

bmwmegtr says:

thats american for you strong as a rock

hot_rod_ruby says:

I’d like to see this with a full size truck like mine where the bumper is
about trunk heighth, and it’s metal not that plastic shit.

angelofdeath9477 says:

where are they gettin the Sonata’s?

WJguy420 says:

@sampwell819 yes, i agree people should slow down and relax when they
drive. SUVs do roll a bit easier. but i can go anywhere i want to in my
jeep.

Right in the ass…

IBMowner1 says:

The H1 would have all of a little dent if that. It’s a true metal (steel i
think.) They don’t make ’em like they used to! 🙁
