I was impressed by my Chevy 3500, a S-10 nailed the side of it, pushed it into a 1970 GMC truck, it felt like someone bumped me sitting in the seat. All three vehicles totaled, the S-10 looked like someone should have died in it. I was not even shaken up. Depends on the type of accident. It depends on who you ask. If you want safety you should pay extra for the optional side impact and curtain airbags on a new truck.

Answer: Safest almost always equals the heaviest. So, a fully loaded dump truck would be a very safe truck (only for you, of course). Of course, people don't drive around dump trucks for fun. Any full-size pickup or full size SUV would be, in theory, your best bet for safety in a collision. Heavier vehicles are not necessarily safer as it has been shown with full size SUV's that have had a very high incidence of roll-0vers due to a higher centre of gravity. Get one with a low center of gravity and heavy built
