IIHS crash tests are largely for insurance companies to use for assessing risk to insure any given model. They’re separate from government mandated crash testing.

Secure your load, but also drive with mindfulness of what’s behind you.  The way that thing can through the front of the bed and the back of the cab, ratchet straps and anchor points weren’t going to stop it.  Think hard before carrying heavy loads and drive as though any accident would be fatal.

This test was for the tow propulsion system, not the barrier system. They want to make sure that their cables dont fail randomly pulling one of these monsters in a few years.
In truth, good on who ever designed this system, overbuilt for success.

Well, you got half the list right, anyway.

Mustangs and Camaros are still too big. I want a TT/Cayman/Boxster/Z4 sized car, but don’t want to pay for the Brand markup. 

I mean, Hyundai did, briefly, but soon realized a luxury marque would help their image issues much more aggressively than a mini-muscle car.

The 4Runner and GX aren’t based on the Tacoma, they are based on the Land Cruiser Prado.

I’m not sure I agree with that, however I did note that the Yukon and Yukon XL got separate entries while the Wagoneer and Wagoneer L were lumped.

Quick bit of history for the Armada/QX80/QX56:
They only shared the F-Alpha platform with Titan (and Xterra, Pathfinder, and Frontier) for their first gen.
They currently share a platform with the Patrol, used around the world, which saves a lot more money than trying to mod the US-only Titan.

Hahaha, I’m going to stick it to Bezos by buying thousands of dollars of amazon merchandise. That’ll teach him to boss me around!

Buys Gawker, immediately fires anyone who doesn’t make slideshows and bans anyone that complains about slideshows.

Or he could buy it and shout “Stick to slideshows!”

Saab - Loose change in his sofa.

Or he could by G/O Media Inc. and tear down this shitty slideshow.

Shady Management?  Sounds like a good fit for Musk.

I read that as being the first car on the list that the average American would recognize. All the prior slides are almost non-existent in the passenger car market here, especially compared to Kia’s current presence.

Let’s all make a mental note he could have bought both Lucid and Rivian for the price he paid to close Twitter down.

Can we stop giving Elon any limelight. The dude is a chode and needs to be forgotten about.

...only $70,000?
