Of course SD of the PRK would be the first to settle against ford: http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/metro/20040602-1613-ca-fordrollover.htmlYes it's more tippy than a car, and maybe even more tippy than the average SUV - but negliently so???

Holy crap is that opening up a HUGE can of worms? Every car company that has an SUV is shitting themselves right about now because if this doesn't get overturned in an appeal they're all next.

I hate how people blame others for their own stupidity. She probably knew that the truck has a much higher chance of rolling then an actual car, yet she decided to get it anyway. I bet she was speeding as well, and failed to mention that when in the accident. I can't believe people are fighting in wars so that people can blame others and sue them for it.

Dumb bich, she bought an SUV for it's "bigness" not handling! In a car you swerve to avoid sh!t...in an SUV you run that same sh!t over. I feel bad for what happened to her, buther insurance company should be taking care of her problems. Not FoMoCo.

," spokeswoman Kathleen Vokes said. "The evidence and real world data show the Explorer is a safe vehicle â?? it meets or exceeds all federal safety standards."
Yeah see people just need to blame someone else because they cant drive a car.
I dont know how many people on here have driven an SUV but I see why dumb people flip them. When you turn your Contour wheel to the left about 7 o clock you might do a lane change, maybe slighty more but if you do that in an SUV your turning more than you would in a car. So I think people are used to driving cars and when they get a new vehicle that steers different they tend to over correct their steering since they dont know how different it is.
