RE: Safety overkill perhaps?
Anyone need more evidence that that thing is a (tacky, lousy) fashion item and not a driver's car?

Wow I wonder if GM will replace the bags? Airbags are pretty pricey!

RE: Safety overkill perhaps?
i wouldn't think that they would. but i don't know. i know my friend had a side airbag go off in his xterra while we were offroading (he had it up on one wheel, not kidding). nissan would not replace it under warranty since it technically did what it was supposed to. cost him like $800 tho the truck ended up wrecked before it could be installed because a suburban pulled out in front of him.

as for the video........... LOL
