CocaCola is the iconic American softdrink; not Pepsi.
MJ might've had more hits than Elvis, Def Leppard could have sold more records than the Beatles and Pepsi might sit in more peoples refrigerators than Coke, but none of those facts changes anything about how they are perceived. Get the point?

Yeah....most people are slaves to their perceptions...
Comforting...
I don't think that's why Consumer Reports gave it mention, though. There is no "heritage" category...and I have a feeling most of their readers wouldn't know what the word meant.
DGthe3 has a very good point...when compared and rated like every other A-B car...the Mustang does quite well.
