In reality, nobody needs one of them and her experience should set off a warning bell that it's the wrong vehicle for anyone but a very skilled driver. In reality, due to it's fuel economy.........it's the wrong vehicle for just about everybody.
It's highly unlikely that she would have lost control of a sedan in a similar situation...........a warning for everyone who owns one of these vehicles.

I should have brought them to the GTG, my uncle has pictures from a year or so ago of a brand new Trailblazer that rolled over in FL. Something stupid caused it to roll, but the kicker was the entire roof collapsed!
I have seen pictures of MB's that rolled and its not unusual to find a lot of the glass not broken. But this POS was resting at an angle on the front of its hood, all the way back to the rear doors was flat. Luckly the driver was a small women and kind of got pushed up in what was left.
You would be safer in an SL in a rollover than one of those POS.
