Which should you choose?

We will not advise between these two machines, because the drive differs (Two-wheel or four-wheel drive; 2WD); they were not built in overlapping years (1990–1999; 1982–1985). The figures below are side by side so you can judge them yourself; each says whether it was measured, claimed or declared by its source.
