Seems to me the emphasis these days is on seating capacity, is that because everyone is producing more sprogs now

It is the people that break the law by not securing the dog away from the driver (securing being the operative word) is the problem not the way a tailgate opens

It is the advertisers, who are more interested in selling cars than the safety of people or animals that are the problem.

I have to say two things.

#1 Ford isn't worth the four letters in its name. AVOID American built cheap crap like Ford. We have a Ford Focus and boy is it a cheap piece of garbage. Toyota over that any day.

#2 Here in America, especially if you have a big dog, the dog often just jumps in the backseat and rides with no form of restraint. A crate for them is too big and impractical in most cases and its just not done. Not the safest, but you do not hear of dogs dying in car accidents, so it seems to work out okay
