Another Reason I'm Glad I Got a 4Runner

From the CNN article, Midsize SUV's Perform Well In Crash Tests:
Eight of nine midsize sport utility vehicles involved in high-speed crash tests garnered the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's top rating for safety, the insurer-funded nonprofit research organization reported Sunday.
After 40 mph frontal offset crash tests into a deformable barrier, the SUVs were checked for structural damage, damage to the dummy driver and performance of the restraint systems, including seat belts and air bags.
Lexus RX 330, Infiniti FX and Cadillac SRX, Toyota 4Runner, Nissan Murano, Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Pilot and Mitsubishi Endeavor were rated "good" or "best pick."

Actually, my girlfriend heard on CNN that the 4Runner was ranked the best off all of them.
