My wife has excellent visibility in her SUV,
and in any tussle with a smaller car (suppose
she is rear ended by a sedan) she will win.

Meanwhile, the moron who rear ends our SUV
will have a bumper through his skull.

In an ideal world, passenger vehicles all match up
and everybody is safe. And a lot more freight is
moved by train. To be sure, the big haul semis
are the biggest pain on the interstate, and it
matters not whether you drive a Prius or an SUV
if you tussel with one of them.

Rock, paper, scissors: Prius, Explorer, Escalade.
Get it?

Actually, I am coming out with both guns blazing and
probably being needlessly obnoxious. Frankly, I'd like
to mothball our Explorer and buy my wife the Mini Cooper
she wants--especially if they made a hybrid. But I
worry about my girls when my wife is driving...
