Walking Away Is A Good Thing
NOV
09

I’m a big guy, and the 2011 Ford Fiesta is a small, but awesome car. I was driving a lot of miles, 17355 on my Fiesta between July 2010 and January 2011. I loved that car almost as much as I love my family. I was sad to see it go after I slid into a ditch and smashed head first into a concrete drainage culvert at 45 miles per hour, BUT I got out of the car, and WALKED AWAY! I suffered a pretty bad bruise from the seatbelt, and a broken sternum from the seatbelt/airbag combo, but that’s it! I would surely have been worse for the wear if it weren’t for the superb safety features built into the Fiesta, including the drivers knee airbag. To this day, I mourn the loss of my 2011 Lime Squeeze Fiesta SES, but at least my family doesn’t have to mourn my loss. Thank you Ford!

I think it will be wondeful if ford vans can be modified for carrying wheelchairs either externally or internally for veterans who need to take their wheelchairs with them or need to be seated in their wheelchairs while driving using hand controls without charging extra for these modifications.
