I cant remember much detail, but last night I watched the end of a segment where nrma had reviewed all types of vehicles based on the old "4x4's are dangerous" when reversing in driveways bit.
Reason for posting this: Falcon got the best rating (4.5 i think), vx comm got half a star, and vy got 0, yes, thats a zero. Anyone who has more info could you post (in particular if you know what show it was so I can find the website and grab the stats) Thanks

At least you can see, which comes in handy when the front end starts floating all over the place.

lmao. I still havent found any more info, but the VT comment reminded me of the old work car (VT), Decided to use it since I was going to an onsite job in rockhampton, five minutes of driving the VT, I returned home, got the *shudder* EA and happily drove to rocky. Fair enough im not the best driver in the world, but I cant see a damn thing out the back of a commodore.
