i've sold cars for 5 years... i have sold VW, GMC, Olds, Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth, Jeep, Eagle, Honda and Subaru... plus tons of other models (used)

biased? maybe. but i can tell you from personal experience from driving the above mentioned cars every single day... and believe me the stories you hear about salesmen beating cars... i was one of them... Subaru AWD is dominant over everyone. period. the only one i cannot vouch for is Audi who is the "grandaddy" of AWD....

i have put countless hours upon hours(and risking my life in the process ) of pushing cars to their limits... i have to say that the AWD is our cars is priceless...

end of sermon.
great video BTW...entertaining

heh, I suppose 99% of accidents are cause by a problem between the seat and the steering wheel.

For shame Nissan! Fit the Skyline with an outstanding AWD set up, then you try and put some garbage AWD in the Murano?

And Honda... ha ha ha, you know better!

And about there being no Audis in the comparison, to be fair, there were also no Lexus, BMW, Infinity, Mercedes, etc. All of them have AWD drivetrains of some sort in some version of a utility/sport vehicle. Subaru was aiming at whom they thought were direct competition. This wasn't the Ultimate AWD Test of the World or anything.
