Why would I waste my money? If something does go wrong down the road I can fix most of the problems myself anyways. :P Why would I have to get an extended warranty? Why would I waste my money?

Since there are so many more cars on the road than SUVs and light trucks, the percentage of people dying in cars I'm sure is greater than the percentage of people dying in SUVs. I would be willing to wager that the highest number of deaths are in small cars, the foreign crap that our fellow Americans are in love with. Also, alcohol has always been involved in at least 50% of highway deaths. Not fair to blame any vehicle when irresponsible drinkers drive. I don't drink, so I can make a statement like that.

Its the only way to attract customers to the dealerships to get more SUVs. Just great. More trucks on the road is what we need. I think all companies paid NHTSA to put in good word for their SUVs.

Many of the old body on frame style SUVs are going away with more SUVs being cross overs or stand alone Unibody designs. Also even the body on frame style SUVs are getting a lot more active safety features like stablity control and roll mitigation. It also makes sense that the fatality rate for SUVs is falling.
