Unibody design has saved countless lives when compared to the "good ole days" when the rigid frame would transfer impact to the occupants and in many cases impale them on the steering wheel or launch them out of the vehicle through the windshield. I get that we all drove them and love them, but what we have today is much safer for us and our children.

Last weekend my college freshman granddaughter was hit almost head-on by a driver running a red light. Totaled her Mazda SUV, destroying the front of the car and pushing the engine almost into the passenger compartment. Thanks to the car's design, seat belts and air bags, she got out with nothing more severe than bruises.
I'm helping her parents shop for a replacement - they want another CX5 since this one did such a great job. What a PITA the car market is for buyers today.
