Well, the author can
Well, the author can certainly make this review work for him by picking and choosing the numbers that he likes. I almost choked on my coffee when he quoted a 2000 lb towing capacity for the Ascent. Most Subaru buyers don't even bother with the base model Ascent because the incentives and bundling is so good in the higher trims.
So biased media is creeping into car reviews these days? Nice try though....
