WHAT??? Most "sport" (there's no sportiness involved) utilities couldn't get out of their own way, especially US-designed ones. The T3 is an excellent handler and can AVOID ACCIDENTS IN THE FIRST PLACE... so long as it has decentr tires & driver. And if you'd read the messages by listees having had accidents in their T3s and seen the Volvo vs VW head-on images, you'd think again. -- Andrew Grebneff 165 Evans St, Dunedin 9001, New Zealand <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Seashell, Macintosh, VW/Toyota van nut
