Best experience I've had with a van
yet.


And the only experience!


How does it stack up to the B9 from outer space? Is it safer?

No sedan will match the large van (with ladder frame construction
beneath) for safety, but you could argue that it's less likely to get
into an accident since it's AWD and a far better handling car.


One could also argue that if the driver is an idiot it is more likely to get
into an accident. Or, arguably since it is a "fun" car, it will be driven in
a style that will make it more susceptible to accident. Higher speed
requires longer stopping distances.



I'll post pics. I didn't answer this yesterday as we went for a rather
cold sail yesterday.


At least you were sailing. How many minutes did you go for?
