Does anyone have a Nissan Murano or a Ford Edge?

Due to the multiple airbags the car had, specifically the side airbags, both the driver and passenger (who wasn't wearing his seatbelt) walked away uninjured. The traffic investigator said he's never seen anyone survive such a horrific crash much less walk away uninjured!

I don't own one, but I was impressed at the safety of this car.

Not that it guarantees a similar outcome if it were to happen again, but that is good to know.

Neither my wife or I are vertically gifted, so the leg room probably won't be an issue. She does like the idea of a 3rd row seat like the highlander has, but we don't need it at this point. The Edge being rated at 27 MPG HWY is nice as well, compared to the Murano, Highlander, and others.
