Forbes released a list of the 20 worst vehicles to drive

http://www.thetorquereport.com/2007/...dangerous.html

Forbes analyzed crash test results, fatality statistics, safety equipment and Consumer Reports' accident avoidance ratings to come up with their top 20 list. Standard safety equipment was one of the priorities in the ratings.

#1 is the Buick Rendevous. Other noteables, Jeep Liberty, Nissan Xterra, and Ford Escape.

Quote:
Compared to other minivans the Rendevous is up to three times more likely to cause a fatality.

Here is the list:

-Buick Rendevous
-Ford Ranger/ Mazda B-Series Truck
-Nissan Frontier
-Ford Escape/ Mercury Mariner (2007 Model)
-Toyota Yaris
-Hyundai Accent
-Toyota Matrix/ Pontiac Vibe
-Kia Rio
-Chevrolet Aveo
-Suzuki Forenza/ Reno
-Ford Focus
-Jeep Liberty
-Dodge Dakota
-Chevrolet Cobalt/ Pontiac G5
-Nissan Xterra
-Saturn Ion
-Chrysler PT Cruiser
-Honda S2000
-Toyota Scion tC
-Mazda3

Here is the full story with why each vehicle made the list.

Default Re: Don't drive these vehicles!!

couple years ago, i backed into a kia...dont recall which one...with my avalanche...my insurance paid out $2500 to fix this thing...mind you...i backed up going about 5MPH tops....my hitch ruined the hood, crunched the left fender and the front grill was trashed. Radiator was pushed into the fan. Damage to avalanche....a scuff of the bumper that rubbed out....pays to drive something with some substance to it as you never know when someone is going to run into you!
