Yeah but what about only in Canada? Does the F150 outsell the Civic here?

*shrug* While I agree, options like ABS/SAB etc. should be available.  I don't care for the automatic inclusion of them in every vehicle.  I'm too cheap and would rather save a few grand without them.  Now on the other hand, heated seats, power windows, doors and seats...  That's a requirement.

But then, I've never been (knock on wood) in a situation where either were required.  Of course, any future kids I have will be driving around in fisher price, foam coated, rubber bumpered, bounce proof cars as I can get them.
