The Insurance Institute for Highway Safetysays four large pickup trucks do well at keeping front-seat passengers safe during crashes, but do a poor job at keeping those in the back seat protected.

But after applying the updated moderate overlap front crash test, which now emphasizes back seat safety, the F-150, Ram 1500 and Silverado are rated poor. The Tundra was given a marginal rating. The IIHS said its tests would have likely caused head, neck and chest injuries to back-seat passengers in the F-150 and Ram 1500. The risk of these injuries was slightly lower in the Silverado. The risk of chest injuries was also too high in the Tundra, but neck and head injury risks were only slightly higher.
