Awesome mileage though man!
A vehicles strength in a crash has nothing to do with having a traditional frame. The only advantage a truck has is that it sits up above most of the immediate danger. But the most dangerous part of an accident is not being hit by anything, it's the G forces that your organs are subjected to.

I also prefer larger cars. Money is nice, but it doesn't mean much if you're dead. Just my $.02
