correct! They hardly ever bash the test cars. Edmunds (http://www.edmunds.com) is a little better a bashing cars -- they tested an SUV, where the review said essentially, "Why would you buy this SUV over SUV A, B, or C, which are a heck of a lot better?" I was shocked! A car mag would never say this.
Plus, a lot of the car mags simply choose the best riding car. They test the cars for almost no time (3 days or so), then give an opinion. What kind of opinion can you really have in 3 days? Get 6 different cars and six different reviewers and test the cars for at least 6 months, each reviewer getting a car for a month. In a land where it snows and rains (not CA). Now that would be a test!
