Pick which you would rather me run over your loved one with. Ford 150 raptor with brush guard or a kei truck. The next question is kei truck or a scooter. I'm sure it would destroy our economy to switch to safe reliable public transportation. But keep on thinking the same way your government education propagandized you, how are those school shootings coming along? Better now? I imagine the numbers are lower? /S
Did you read what I wrote? I am in favor of Kei trucks. I just want them to put in better crumple zones and airbags first.
Do you disagree with airbags? I really don't know what you're getting at. I know you threw on the /s at the end but that still doesn't make your post make sense.
Yeah, but at that point, don’t you have something like the Honda fit? Cars that already are sold in the us, but don’t do well? We don’t need a new class of vehicles as much as we need to encourage better choices among the ones we already have
Also a valid point - it's not necessarily a lack of options that's preventing people from buying more efficient cars. "Lack of options" is more in play in choices to use public transport or drive
I do disagree with airbags cars should be less safe for drivers.
