Like I said, I'm not eliminating almost every piece of safety equipment on my car just to save 50-100lbs. Not a shot at you or anyone else that does it, just how I see it.

Edit: And airbags still do quite a bit at highway speeds when it comes to slowing the body's rate of deceleration. Even if it's only slowing your head down so you don't pull/break your neck.

I'm not wrong at all. There are way too many variables in a crash to say which piece would save you in a crash that has not happened.

For example. My car is 300lb lighter with the oe wheels/spare and jack in it. The structure just not having to stop that 300lb could make the difference.

Some say they do but I have not. Your seat belt is your first line of defense in a crash. My wife weighs less than 90lb. The air bag could kill her. In a 60+ mph crash the air bag is gonna do little to save you. A hit in your door at 60 and your dead......airbag or not.
