One of my friends had one , one rainy night in late February on his way back to work he saw headlights for a transport truck , what he didn't see was the log trailer 90* across a main highway as the tractor was backing into his driveway because the tractor headlights were on the opposite side of the road , no reflectors on the black trailer and the lights were covered with mud ..
My friend hit the log loader leg going about 60 mph .

60 mph to Zero in the distance of the front bumper to almost the windshield .
All the airbags deployed , when he came to he could hear people yelling , he hit the power lock button and they pried the door open enough so he could get out , he walked around the truck and waited for the ambulance .
He got banged up pretty good , a broken cheek bone , a broken sternum and a torn hip rotator cuff but was able to go back to work at the end of April albeit much slower .
We chalk up the survival on 3 things ,
#1 , The engineers were on the ball .
#2 , Nissan's QC is and desire to make a good product is right there .
#3 , It just wasn't his time .
If anyone gives you a hard time about buying a "Jap" truck , I'll get you my buddy's number , he'll set them straight for you .
BTW , his Iphone was on the passenger seat , it exploded when it hit the dash and there's a set of keys jammed between the dash and the center console .
Nice "Jap" truck
