"My little Corolla will seat four comfortably and gets better than the sticker shows, which is 42 mpg highway. If we need more room we use my wife's Trail Blazer at about 20mpg.

how much room will you need in your Corolla when some drunk hits you head on going 60 miles per hour.

That happened one of my best friends going home from work one Friday evening. He was so smashed up they had a closed casket at the funeral. You would be surprised at how much less gasoline you need when you are dead.

Yes, if someone crashes into you going 60 MPH you are dead if you are in a Corolla or an SUV.

A tree could fall on me at any time or be struck by a meteorite but I've managed to live 63 years so far without either happening.

Funny you mention that as people who drive an SUV are 1) More likely to die in a wreck (rollover) and 2) more likely to kill someone they hit themselves (impact).
