??? BUYING A NEW CAR ???

Well it’s because the cars that were made out of metal were really tough, people were safer drivers back in the day, and they could receive collision punishment a lot greater than these plastic, modern cars today can. Now there are a few sources that’ll end up telling you that modern cars are safer because of airbags, seatbelt technology, and aluminum material for weight distribution.

To a certain extent, I can buy into that concept, but then it ends up being a logical fallacy because I’ve noticed that a lot of these modern cars end up getting destroyed and folded flat like a pancake during an accident. I was a victim of this when I collided with another vehicle a few years ago in my 2007 dodge charger (which I no longer have anymore); it was plastic material. It really boils down to the material of the car. Steel will always be tougher and greater than plastic material.
