JD Power looks at NEW vehicles. I've never been able to figure out what their criteria are.
Consumer Reports uses surveys of actual owners, over a 10 year period of time. I know, I've participated in 2 of them. So they are looking at real data.
I don't care much about what a vehicle does at zero miles---I want to know what it does at 200K miles.
I just wish Toyota hadn't buggered up the 4Runner with a horrible 7 pin connector and a hitch that isn't designed for weight distribution.
