Totaled his car. His airbag didn't come out. It tried, but just let out a hiss. Now I'm trying to get him to buy an '86 IROC-Z that's already pretty modded.

Glad he is all right. Otherwise it's no big loss... some Ford got smashed.

Yeah, try to get him into an F-boat.

Same thing happened when my brother wrecked my T/A many years ago, but the bag actually came out but didn't even inflate. Hope his is ok.

That sucks. My luck, the thing wouldn't go off until I'm about to get out of the car and it'd break my arm or something. Sick looking LT1 btw...looks good man.

To OP, glad your buddy is okay.

I dont get how they need a bailout when the F150 is the most sold "car/truck" in the world. Beats me!

On nother note airbags go bad...

Another note... If it was me the airbag wouldnt go off and when its all said and done ill sit back in my car and then slam my head into the steering wheel... going FUCKKKK and then THEN!!!! It will go off.... yep.... just my luck

Ford didn't take any bailout money.

I made the joke about the bailout, because someone had basically posted Ford = Fail and then talked up Chevy right after that.

its just because all ford parts are a cheaper part, meaning ford makes more profit on their shitty cars and trucks, no bailout....






i actually drive a ford, just trying to start ****....

The one in my 96 Cobra worked correctly! I crashed into a soft snowbank, the AIR BAG light came on but the bag did not deploy. I thought it was going to blow up in my face after the fact.

After I sold the car to my bro he crashed it into something solid! The bag did deploy and save his ***...er...face.
