...still too soon to know for certain how well the Tempo and Topaz, which carry a base sticker price of $7,238, will do, but early signs are good. Hertz bought 15,200 of them for its rental fleet, the biggest single purchase it has ever made, and during the cars' first month on the market, dealers sold some 20,000 models, 50% more than the company's internal sales projections...

Its 25-mm gun is not "highly inaccurate" but exceeds rigorous Army standards in all tests to date. The sticker price is not $1.94 million but $1.1 million, and the M113 costs $180,000, not $80,000. What's more, the vehicle's aluminum armor does not vaporize, incinerate or form a fireball. The armor is not "twice as thick" as the M113's-it measures 1 in., in contrast...
