this sounds like it had potential to be small overlap crash. And looking at IIHS videos, those look dangerous.

We have an ecoboost Escape, not impressed with the mileage, so if the mileage is going to suck, may as well get the V8!

Well, my ruby red car hast bit the dust (through no fault of my own :doh: ). I was sideswiped by a dude driving a 2015 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 who crossed the center line on me on a two lane road...:tsk: Insurance has totaled the car out. However, I fully intend to replace it with another Ecoboost (which I'm ordering tonight!) :headbang: I'm thinking Deep Impact Blue...
That sucks, but sounds like you walked away OK which is all that matters! The S550 Mustangs are pretty safe for sure. Got photos of the carnage?

Got a very consistent 28 MPG with this car in the 4 months and 7,500 miles I owned it... :ford:

I think the crash actually would have been safer for me had the front bumper been hit. My car got spun around 180 degrees and my side impact air bags didn't go off. This is because my front bumper wasn't hit at all, as you can see from the pics... :frusty:

What were your motives for trading in the EB?

Sweet car man! They are both nice, but I could not see driving it without the big 5-oh under the hood.

Well I take that back, would take the 5.2 over the 5.0 but the 5.0 is still pretty sweet... :)
