``Engineers shot test tires with 50-caliber rounds from an AK-47 and
then subjected them to 5,000 hours of off-roading.''

Polaris bought this technology almost a year ago. As of the third
quarter of 2012, articles appeared in which the head of the
development department talked about shooting one with a .50 cal bullet
and then driving on it for 6,000 miles.

The "AK-47" comment seems to be something that FOX News added; it's
not in any of the other quotes except those that appear to be Fox
affiliates, and it wasn't attributed to a Polaris official.
