Front end of car will always take more damage as it is the major crumple zone. So, it is designed to do that. Rear not as much for the same reason - has crumple, but is also the strongest zone of the car due to it typically being the largest section of the unibody.

Yeah, so? At least this piece of tinfoil hasn't mysteriously lost oil like my Forester.
Seriously though, yeah, not impressed by the offset collision indications. The 16mpg local and 22mpg long distance/hwy is OK though, especially compared to what my 4Runner and RS were getting.

Same thing with my current Charger R/T, I think I am sitting at 15-16 combined right now, while they advertise 19-20.
At the same time I have to abuse my Tacoma like a red headed Irish step child who stole a cookie to get it below 18-19 combined MPG
