That was actually debunked I believe one of the news organizations set it up to explode on camera.. But the damage was done, GM made changes shortly there after I believe.Quote:

They were fine... Now mine, I don't like. Plus having the filler right behind the window stanks. I will miss explaining the sloshing sound to new passengers when we put a tank under the bed. Yeah, that's 20 gallons of grade-a gas-o-line taking a ride in the cab with us.

When I had to abort a lane change on the highway (Trans Am), I didn't over-correct and yet I almost swerved into a truck. The car was weaving, and it wasn't due to a worn-out suspension or very worn tires. There probably was a cross-wind, but a heavy sports car shouldn't be so affected. The rear-while drive contributes to the poor handling, I think. I suspect that in many one-car accidents, handling makes the difference between staying on the road and crashing. Firebirds might handle slightly better than Camaros, but I don't want any part of a debate.
