. It is very different getting into a crash in a 26,000# motorhome vs. a 2000# smart car. That amount of mass will slow down and or stop much slower than a smaller amount of mass when hitting an equal sized object. This is just physics. The net effect for passengers is less effects in a crash.
That would be a great point if your 20,000# motorhome is on the road with nothing but smart cars. More likely you'll be on the road with a bunch of 80,000# semis. Get in an accident with a truck or hit a divider and your physics point is moot.
