Heh, dunno about 20 MPH, but after two solid thumps there is no damage to the Subaru that I can tell.

Plus they had a nifty article in the magazine they send Subie owners ("Drive") written by a firefighter who wanted to find out why they weren't able to cut through the B pillar of Subarus at crash scenes even with gas-powered cutters. Turns out there are like 8 layers of steel in the thing around what is basically a section of rebar(!).
