That they wanted to make a profit by selling an unusual designed car
to young buyers for low cost?  It worked.

As to aerodynamics, 99% of the time these cars are tooling around the
city at less than 50 mph and I'd guess even at highway speeds they
still get better mileage than an SUV.

I don't like 'em either, but then I think Harleys are big overmarketed
noise boxes.  I don't like SUVs much either.  We could apply the same
standard.

You know what the worst is?  You're stuck in traffic because some slow
moving fat a55 Navigator is blocking your path to speed.  I HATE those
things.  Escalades suck too.
