Why the f*&k are you driving around in a van, and what prompted you to search for this video and leave meaningless comments anyway??? Of course when a 10 tonne truck hits a 1 tonne car it will most likely obliterate it! The reasoning behind these crash tests is that most people drive around in normal cars, and hence accidents are therefore most likely to occur with a similar car. If someone wants to bombproof themselves they can always buy a tank!

I love all these comments like;

"I h8's teh FORD BIOTCHES tey BUILD teh shit carz"

or

"Fuck that shit, that car is tiny, who drives them? Fucking fags! - I have to drive a fucking massive truck as it proves I'm a MAN. A MAAAAAN DAMNIT!"

Hilarious!

@calendar11 In case of an accident, the seatbelt pulls you in an upright position.

Fiesta are a half or full of T.O.D. (Trap of Death)

[JackBandicootsBunker]

@streesmut70 For me 2 airbags, ESP and ABS would make for a base model here, and it would sell like hotcakes if correctly priced.

We get the US-spec design, built in Mexico, with the full equipment, and it's the only version available here. As for the Fiesta Sedan, now there are two equipment levels, which are similar to the Titanium one.

@JackBandicootsBunker

Fiesta in Australia are get 7 airbag as US or Europe model (Made in Thailand) but for Thai version are get only 2 airbag (front)

[JackBandicootsBunker]

@streesmut70 That's still something remarkable. Mercosur cars lack dual airbags and ABS. They will be mandatory for 2014.

It would be nice to get a Thai Fiesta over here, because with that equipment it should be a bit less expensive, and thus Ford might sell a bit more (a Fiesta Titanium's MSRP is of 20,000 dollars here). What I would like to know is if the quality of the materials used in the assembly is as good as the Mexican/European models.
