Good points Bill....as far as driver safety is concerned, I'm sure the insurance companies can back you on that. As far as my sense of security goes, seeing these new cars all folded up (including the driver's seat in some I've seen) does nothing for it. My wife's recent accident is a good example. The police said he was travelling 45 mph when he hit her. He also said if she'd been in a new car, she would have sustained major injury. I'm not directing this at you, but I'll keep my tanks, thanks.....
