toUpperCase not working

Question

My code works fine until I add in the toUpperCase method. Can you let me know why?
var q1 = prompt("What is Elvis's last name?");
var q2 = prompt("Who was god of the Trojans?");
var q3 = prompt("Who sung feel the steel?");
var q4 = prompt("What is 5 minus 3?");
//q4 = parseInt(q4);
var q5 = prompt("To be or not to be, that is the _?");
var answerTotal = 0;
if (q1.toUpperCase === "PRESLEY") {
    answerTotal += 1;
}
if (q2.toUpperCase === "APOLLO") {
    answerTotal += 1;
} 
if (q3.toUpperCase === "STEEL PANTHER") {
    answerTotal += 1;
} 
if (parseInt(q4) === 2) {
    answerTotal += 1;
}
if (q5.toUpperCase === "QUESTION") {
    answerTotal += 1;
} 
if (answerTotal === 5) {
    document.write("Congratulations you have recieved the gold crown!");
} else if (answerTotal >= 3) {
    document.write("Congratulations you have recieved the silver crown!");
} else if (answerTotal >= 1) {
    document.write("Congratulations you have recieved the bronze crown!");
} else {
    document.write("Sorry you missed all the answers!");
}
