Worrying about Google tracking your movements when you have real-world concerns like raising your child, paying your bills, fixing your truck ... that shit is stupid. No one cares except Google's advertisers, and I've got AB+. I don't give a shit if they track my surfing, I still don't see their ads.
Not you, obviously. I care very much about privacy - always have.
Chrome is produced by Google, and does not have your privacy in mind. Mozilla takes the privacy of its users to be one of their core values. FF is open-source, Chrome isn't. Chromium is, however it represents a security risk as it can't receive automatic updates. FF's UI is far more customisable than Chrome's.
In terms of vulnerability, Chrome and IE beat FF quite significantly at the moment since they run within a sandbox with lower permissions than regular applications. But at last year's Pwn2Own all three as well as Safari on Mac were hacked. Most of the exploits involved exploiting Adobe's Flash and Reader plugins.
That security is fixable - open Flash options in plugins and select "Ask to Activate". Now flash will never run on a webpage unless you give it permission.
If you want to play some games on http://www.pogo.com/ - guess what? Java no longer supported in Chrome!

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
