        I thought the SmartCar was the brainchild of Mercedes Benz?

          Thanks! For some reason our memories are getting very short when it comes to politics. This pic was also posted here a few weeks ago with the story. Not pretty at all, but I doubt my CrewMax Tundra would have survived that kind of accident.

            It doesn't matter what the car is if squished between two trucks. Actually the Smart car is considered safe according to safety tests. I wouldn't buy one because they are way over priced. A real negative is they don't carry a spare tire plus the front and back tires are different sizes and can't be rotated. Stay with a Toyota or Honda.

              Not much would of survived a sandwich between two dump trucks. They can send that ambulance on home, they won't be needed!

                Yeah, but which one do you prefer for your family??

                I could care less what people want to drive but don't be mad at my decision to be in a larger / safer vehicle. I'll stack the favor for my wife and kids however I can and yet to some, I'm still the bad guy for polluting the planet and putting the 'smart' drivers in more danger if we collide.

                it's beyond stupid how some folks view and want to change the world. You can just follow the car czar for the definition of irony.

                  I saw a wreck involving a jeep and 2 semi trucks a few years back in Austin. The jeep didn't hold up any better; however the amazing part was the guy in the jeep saw the second truck coming and jumped from his vehicle. Only injury reported was a scratch from flying glass.....someone upstairs was definitely looking out for him that day.

                    That has been happening since the beginning of time and some folks would prefer that things never change! Thus advancement (or lack of) for GOOD or BAD. I prefer not to drive a vehicle that my wife describes as a "bady shoe!" We have had 4 Suburbans (all 4 wheel drives) and have a V8 Tundra now. Not because of needing that much power but we like that much power! It is a choice for me and my wife and until it becomes economically unfeasible I doubt we would change.
                    Heck, my grandparents had an outhouse only. But most of the US had gone to flush toilets. That was there "economic" choice........no money so no flush toilet.

                      That doesn't look like a Smart Car to me, too much metal in there and that rim looks like a Chevy product. Based on how crumpled that car is, if it had been a Smart the trucks would be touching each other.
