I think if I were in your shoes I might try for a Volvo as their results seem to be better in side impact, injuries, and deaths:
Volvo Crash-Test Results, Volvo Safety Information, Volvo Insurance Data, NHTSA, IIHS, NCAP, S60, S70, S40, V70, V40, S80, S90, V90, DL, GL, GLE, 760, 740, 780
Ford Crash-Test Results, Ford Safety Information, Ford Insurance Data, NHTSA, IIHS, NCAP, Mustang, Crown Victoria, Focus, Escort, Contour, Aspire, Tempo, LTD, Thunderbird, Probe, Festiva, ZX2
Also, the Volvos tend to do better in rear impacts:
Head restraints: Volvo
Head restraints: Ford
