I should note that I have a titanium plate running along the remnants of the humerous (upper arm bone) of my right arm- it is held there by 13 titanium screws and was installed at a cost of 24,794 dollars- this was required after a person driving in a small, fuel efficient, zippy car swerved into the side of my fiancee's car. resulting in our impact at 70 mph into a very unsympathetic concrete barrier- more than a year later i can use my "improved" arm, but no where near as well as before- while I do not support suv's, as I think they are overpriced, I feel far safer in a large vehicle, and had I the money (ie i hit the lotto) I would not hesitate to get a hummer, the older one that is built like a tank, (the new ones are too small) thus greatly decreasing my chances of repeating my earlier ordeal.....as i cannot decrease the population of bad drivers, some "armor" would be nice.
