It was absolutely rigged. You could pass or fail it depending on how you drove. I agree they were high center of gravity and didn't handle well. So were many other vehicles they passed.
I don't agree with a test that is dependent on the driver. They could have easily failed the Ford Explorer if they had driven it like the Trooper.
It's a shady organization.
