So it looks like you are going with safety/girth over mpg 🙂

Are you looking for an old car to rack up miles, or a new car?

Tesla.

This. That way in case the head-on collision doesn't take you the fiery, explosions of the batteries will. 😉

This is the safest car on the road. Throw in the MPGe and you're golden!

"Safest car" is a collection of ratings across many crash test categories. Doesn't mean it is the best for head on.

Unless you are getting a big truck, then a Tesla has the largest crumple zone.

Dont forget the crash avoidance factor that Teslas bring as well.

do you work for Tesla or just own one?

Ha, neither. I'll be getting a Model 3 soon, but I don't have it right now.

Will get a Model 3 Y when it comes out.

4/12/19 1:06pm

I'll get the 3 first. Maybe Y later when I have kids.

You will die in a highway head on collision, better to make it quick & painless.

A 2008 to 2019 Ford Taurus is not a bad option: Built on a Volvo Chassis

I love my King Ranch F150, but I will say that I have had to fix a lot of dumb crap on it.

"Reliable" is not what it used to be. Meaning most cars today, even the "crappy" ones, are more reliable than
