My choice: A car that is not too fast and can survive being hit or crashed. My dad had us all start in the wagon. We all hated it but is saved some of our lives.

Some big car little car memories:

My sister was hit by a drunk who was driving a volkswagen rabbit. Wagon: had a dented bumper and creased fender. Rabbit: had the engine in the passenger compartment.

Six years ago I drove over a ford escort being driven by a drunk driver. I missed the passenger compartment by a foot. I was in a ford F150. Within six months of my accident two passemgers were killed in separate accidents at the same intersection. One in a honda accord the other in a toyota truck. I love my wife and was happy I happened to be driving my truck that night.

I don't mean to scare you, I just think your daughter is only 16 and it would be great if she had the cards stacked in her favor if she happened to get in an accident.

Good luck with the decision.
