Great shots. The headlight LEDs almost look like a Yukon, which i think is a good look too.

I can't believe they total them after stuff like that… they're $60k+ vehicles for crying out loud.

These newer vehicles crumple up so easy though, and nowadays your through to the frame and bending it in a minor accident. It’s better to sacrifice the vehicle than to sacrifice you. I will say though aluminum bodies fold up a lot worse than steel in an accident while being no safer and it is 30% more expensive to repair aluminum than steel so the bills add up quick. but in an accident of that magnitude any modern vehicle is totaled no matter what its made of. We are a lot safer today than back when with our vehicles, except if you drive a sixties Cadillac that weighs 6,000 pounds..... I’d say your safe then.

That's true, I didn't think about the aluminum body work especially.

Don't get me wrong, anytime someone borrows my car I tell them there are two rules:

1. Don't crash my car.
2. If you crash my car, make sure you total it.

I would rather have my brand-new really expensive SUV totaled after an accident than repair it and try and drive it for years after, it'll never be the same again, unless it was a minor fender-bender with ONLY body damage.
