All cars are like that these days. Much safer, just too bad that happens at low speeds.

LOL, yeah it ain't as tough as they make em out to be..

Guess they created a false sense of security...

Well, it looks like the driver/passenger area held up all right; same with the Dodge. Vehicles are definitely engineered now to sacrifice the front end in this sort of crash, to dissipate the energy. I will agree , though, that a lot of people seem to buy these behemoths with the mistaken idea that they will simply roll over or crush anything they happen to hit. Kind of a stupid notion of road safety, if you ask me...
I'd love to take a rally-equipped Hummer on a desert run sometime, but I just don't get driving them in the street. Just a silly status symbol, IMHO.

If you want tough get a Series I or II Land Rover
The only vehicle that is squaddie-proof
