I read the Motor Trend SUV of the year article... and the tester whined about the Pathfinder's Rugged Trails... how they were they only serious offroad tires among the bunch, but they handled the worst among the bunch as well...

DUH... Motor Trend is missing the point...
I've stopped really caring about the Motor Trend awards.. they reward cushy plush minivans disguised as SUVs... :rolleyes:
