(BUZZER)

You mentioned best crashed worthiness in its class. I just checked http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/NCAP/Cars/2002SUVs.html and it appears that Forrester earned no better than 4 stars out of five. That's not bad, but it's not 5 stars like some other vehicles in its class.

So, FACT, had it been BEST IN CLASS, it would have earned 5 stars. Is my math correct here?

Before you spread any more FACTS, please check you sources.
