If you really think size equates to comfort & safety... Well, you could probably pick up one of these
M60 Patton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia on the surplus market. You could even ecomod it a bit: for instance, you won't really need the 105 mm gun on the highway - the 50 cal machine guns should suffice for dealing with road-rage cases - so that's a couple of tons off the weight right there :-)
Edited to add: I checked eBay, but there aren't any M60s being offered at the moment. However, there is this:
