I think you are off base comparing what the Focus guys do to us. They have a much more compact and stiff chassis and they have better weight distribution.
I have never seen a handling conscious Contour owner upsize the front bar. Increased mobility does you no good if you can't put an power to the ground.

The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
