I 've found those are fixed. Whoever wines and dines the reporter the most, gets the best write up. I've met many of theses people and the only reason the could get a job is because they have creative writing skills. The sheep are easily swayed by a person that has no mechanical or driving let alone any experience behind a wheel..Remember creative writing got them there job. Go drive the cars yourself and bring back a report it will differ from theirs..
