I dont have it with me, but there are two sections:
The first is the Overall rating, which included their complaints about the poor visibility and gas milage.
The second is towards the back of the magazine, which rated all vehicles based on the mechanics, alone. They rated all aspects as follows:
Solid red circle: Excellent
1/2 red circle: Very Good
White Circle: Good
1/2 black circle: Fair
Black circle: Poor
The FJ got Solid Red Circles in all areas. Only two or three other vehicles received 100% Solid Red Circles.
Catagories included:
Engine
Cooling
Fuel
Ignition
Transmission
Electrical
A/C
Suspension
Brakes
Exhaust
etc....
I can scan it and post it tomorrow - A

YOu may be misinterpreting the overall results... I saw the same article on CR online... They were referring to the "Reliability" And Yes, I belive it's over all Reliability or expected reliability was only surpassed by a lexus ES 330 (Fj @ 92 vs Lexus @ 93, those were the two highest rated reliability vehicles I saw in the report...). In other measures it was rated rather poorly. Which is Fine. I love my FJ, but it's not for everyone.
Cheers,
