Well, when it comes from two or more different sources then there is a major
problem.

But looking at the front gears and the transmission, the Sentra is running
taller smaller gears compared to the Neon. If the Neon had the same gear
then Sentra would lose.

that all real World cars/trucks will perform that way.
Magazine tests are just colorful toilet paper(IMHO).
