Since I usually drive the Echo, I don't like the trend on the light end either. I'd hate to see the death rate on my buggy since it handles poorly, brakes badly, and would fit nicely under a Hummer. Pete's Impreza though fits into the handles its way out of trouble department. I'd rather trust handling over weight for saftey.
