My wife has an Eddie Bauer Explorer, and to be honest I was looking at trading it in on a Volvo S80. Then my 16 month old son and I were out for a drive and got T-Boned by a pickup truck. Caved in the whole side of the truck, and scared the SHIT out of me. My son and I were unhurt, and the truck took the full brunt of the impact.
Long story short, I will ALWAYS own an SUV for the safety. This just made me realize that they are safer than cars. Yes, the environment, pollution.. yada yada yada. My families safety comes first.
