I'll be fascinated to see how they fare in the crash-test ratings. And beyond that, they have a lot of features that would help one *avoid* an accident, if it was the kind one could dodge away from. Both are important, to my mind. A certain amount of the time the truck just leaps over the barrier right ahead of you and there's no time to do anything.

My 6'7" friend in college was a big fan of the VW Rabbit; he said it was one of the very few cars he could both sit in and afford.

The web site mentions parking places, but doesn't mention that you could probably fit 4 or even 6 in most "2-car" garages.
