I refuse to believe that a car with more power and torque and better gearing can fail a test that a car with less power, less torque and less gears passed, simply because it had one extra cylinder. It defies logic. Obviously I'm referring to the 3.2 Ranger tested in the ute test.

I don't agree with his methods because very few people in the real world actually drive like that.

I personally don't find him credible.
What 3.2L? He compared it to the v6 diesel, which is better than the 4 cylinder.

Ute test had the 4 cylinder and v6 also, no 3.2.

Why does he have to drive like everyone in the real world for a test? They put all these 4wds in the same setting using the same tests to figure out who’s who in the zoo. I don’t know why anyone would find that a bad thing.
