This isn't about the '05 and newer ones, but the mid-90s on. I had heard once that Mustangs were unusually bad or hazardous in rear-end crash situations because the fuel tank was located more vulnerably than in most cars. Sort of a Pinto situation, I suppose. I never found out for sure if that was hype, or the beer talking, or just anti-Stang and/or anti-Ford propaganda. Does anyone have any reasoned and educated input?
