Now you know why there are no window frames on the doors; Subaru chose to put that metal in a place where it could do more good.

What happens when they need the jaws of life to get me out of my car and then they cant cut through it?

evilrazor · 02-27-2006, 10:21 AM

I just hope that if my car never catches fire while im stuck inside Seems like they wont be able to get me out.....But I wont have any broken bones!

The coroner will cut your corpse out before the car goes to the crusher.

I've seen the insides of the pillars before and this is why I do not hesitate to use my harness bar and fixed back seat at the track without a roll bar.

Nice article, I'll have to ask my firefighter brothers if they saw it too
