Nice too see everyone talking!
I saw this on another website/forum about a month or so ago. Stimulated
A LOT of conversation there as well.
I’ll say this-

Doesn’t matter what year/make/model or what it hit- the largest vehicle
ALWAYS has the least number of injuries….period.
I feel safer in my old cars than my new, always have….

I'll add this,
From No real world experience but just from Hoosier practicality I decided to
strongly guide my teenage boys into C-bodies for their first cars.
My Thinking was, if they are going to mess up, I wanted them to a have a better
chance at walking away from the situation. In the only incident where it
mattered, yups that big ol Mopar killed the tree rather then flipping and
rolling, so all I got was a phone call asking me to 'come and get me'.
Besides the cars they started out with afforded us a lot of father/son time,
teaching them auto maintenance. Neither of them are afraid to tackle auto
challenges even with their modern cars now.
