Crash,

Well bless your lucky stars, and we're all glad you are still with us. That is
a most dangerous thing in a pickup and there have been many serious
injuries/fatalities in just that way, head hitting the back window in rear end
collisions. Trucks should have cushioning or head rest there, esp. in Phoenix
traffic. Never gotten around to doing mine, but I will some day...
