Folding the windscren down was going to go to the Willys of course but if they had someone who had actually folded a JK softtop down as often as the other guy had folded down a Will'ys top the JK would have looked a lot better.
I think it was fair enough to not test a Rubicon against a Willy's as that's a pretty much given result you would have to use a Willy's with double lockers or leave the lockers off to make it fair.
I doubt the lower range gearing was really going to help on a hill like that, which really was a flawed test, it depended more on how much run up you got rather than what you were driving.
The didn't do anything to compare suspension performance either.
