That is not even close to the same thing 
, my point is yeah your pilot might be safer then an Evo in certain crashes but if your getting T boned by a larger vechicle at a high rate of speed it will probably not make a difference. There is no sense in letting a few sorted scenarios determine your choice in car. The Evo is far safer then a bike an an accident yet still gives me the feeling of owning a machine I love to call my own and drive.
It's called compromise.

I agree with you on getting t-boned by a large vehicle but you and your family getting t-boned by a sedan in your evo and my family and I getting t-boned in my pilot, my family and I have better chances of surviving (or lesser injuries). But hey, it's your family and your evo so it's your call. My condolences in advance
I was pointing out your analogy with the mortar. You're implying that whatever you do, where ever you are, you're gonna die if it's your time, right? So what's the point of wearing seat belt, driving defensively, choosing a safer family car, etc if it's how the way you look at safety?

To some people the peace of mind is worth it.
I understand that but its more a delusion of safty then anything is my point. I havent been in a wreck in like 7 years when I did get T-boned by a drunk driver while I was working for Comcast doing my boss a favor since no one wanted to work that day.
Luckily I was in my comcast van as this little as camry ****ed my **** up. Of course he was speeding and ran a red light but my point I havent been in an accident in a very long time. When was the last time you were in one? Whats to say the accident that your in isnt a semi where the driver is sleeping and doesnt realize traffic is stoped and rea ends you.
So to live your life under the false guise that driving your pilot will keep you safe instead of driving the Evo is just a fleeting thought I choose not to get caught up in.

The evo unlike the pilot is a lot better of a car in the aspect of driving. I did almost wreck my Evo back in Jan of 09. I was driving from Kansas back to CT to go to my grandfathers funeral and I came out of a tunnel hit some black ice and got completly sideways to the point where I was looking at the jersey barrier. Fortunatly between my driving, ability not to panic and the Evos amazing ability to recompose itself I managed to avoid and accident completely.
No damage other then maybe a little more wear on my tires
