Design studies were made of the vehicle modifications required to accommodate air bags and passive belt restraint systems in full-sized pickup trucks, vans, and mini-pickups. Costs and weights of these modifications were estimated for both types of restraint systems, as well as the impact of the additional weight on fuel consumption. The leadtime for incorporating these modifications into production vehicles was also estimated. It was concluded that the retail price increment for the vehicle modifications would be in the range from $47 to $56 for a passive belt system, and $54-$73 for an air bag system.
