Re: Liberty CRD
I've been reading consumer reports for about 30 years now and they certainly
have a yuppie/yuppette tree-hugger bias.
Once you understand their bias you'll find them a good source of statistical
information.
They have no understanding of off-road issues and requirements and judge
SUVs in the same light as they would rate any other vehicle whose use is
solely light duty on paved streets.
A quick look at their recommended vehicles confirms this, when was the last
time you saw the recommended Buick Rendezvous or Volvo V70/XC70 off-road?
