I'd still rather be driving the Impala..with some seat belts thank you.. :D :sunny: Watched a movie recently, "The Last Stand" where they crashed a new ZR1 head to head with a Suburban,and the Suburban launched up over the Vette and was destroyed. The Vette continued on…with some minor paint scrapes..yea..right..got to love Hollywood! 8)

as a shop owner I couldn't say how many times some one has said they dive a SUV or framed vehicle because they are so much safer than a car . it's total BS !
yesterday I had a rolled over land rover towed out to the bone yard . the women was going down I95 and had to do a quick lane change because of a chair in her lane and the POS flipped on it's side .
she is happy because her kids were not in the thing ! and she bough it because she though it was safer than her old car was . if she was looking for more room for the kids and also wanted to be safe she should have bought a BMW ,BENZ , or Volvo wagon . I don't thing they will flip all that ez with a quick lane change ?
hell I feel safer in my gay Ferrari 2 AKA Miata than I would in any SUV !
as for a head on I would rather have one wth the Miata then the dodge lodge van .

I guess you guys opting for the old cars don't pay attention to the highway safety statistics.
