My 92 just about cut an escort in two that pulled out in front of me My car barely got totalled and even that is still questionable. I have a 95 W/4.6 now I love it and I fill safe.

Funny you should ask, my '95 took about $3000 worth of damage a week or so ago. I was backed into by a 93 Olds Bravada, and their bumper was the same height as my headlight. Needless to say, it took out all the lights, dented through the hood, bent my fender, and destroyed my bumper. They don't seem to be too strong to me, but I still love my car (after I get it fixed).

Well, when you can take a comparable car, get rearended by a pickup with trailer loaded down with landscaping equipment, get pushed into a 3/4 ton pickup that's stopped, have $11,600 worth of damage, and still drive the car with no problems other than it being an eyesore, come to talk to me about them not being too strong.
