Default Rollover, Kia!

I guess not!

If anyone listened to the rollover ratings (they were listed on 1010
wins yesterday) the Kia Sedona had the BEST safety rating for rollover,
beating the Sienna and Honda by a LARGE margin. The Sedona was also
judged the safest minivan ever tested period, and also beat the Honda
and Toyota in roadholding and braking.
I still prefer fit and finish in the Toyota and Honda by a small
margin, but that's all they got.
BTW, Toyota had the best and worst ratings for their pickups on
rollovers. I don't remember the models though.

One can simply judge for themselves what a "large" margin is at:

There's a 2% difference between the Sienna ans Sedona. Interestingly, the
Sienna is less likely to roll over than a Subaru Forester by the same
"large" margin and doubly less than a SUBARU TRIBECA!

A mini-van has a better roll over rating than a SUBARU TRIBECA! By an
ASTRONOMICAL MARGIN!!! An economy car (Corolla) beats it through the cones!
What, exactly, does the Tribeca do well?

Wasn't RB touting the TRIBECA as the safest car on earth?

Where are the pictures of his 35s5 underway? hmmm?
