We had a '59 Chevy when I was in high school. I'm sure glad I didn't have a head
on with the 2009 Malibu.

Damn, I thought those old cars were tanks.

A lot of us thought that both we and the cars were indestructible.

I knew a young lady who hit a tree with a Chevy of about that vintage.
Both she and the car were badly messed up. The column of the
steering wheel pushed right back into the driver's compartment and
kind of wrapped the steering wheel around her head. She survived
fortunately but was badly hurt.
