Getting into a car accident is a traumatic experience by itself and an even more difficult situation when the car is brand new and totaled. A few days ago, my mom and I went car shopping for a new car after it was totaled a few weeks ago.

This SUV felt so safe compared to the Chevy Trax, maybe because it was much bigger and knowing that it has rear head airbags was comforting to us. There isn’t a lot of different features, but the ones that are made a big
