The cow was designed by the Almighty. Jeep Wranglers, like camels, were designed by committees.
I remember well the clean look of the 1957 Ford. It came out about the time I got my driver’s license. A committee then took the design for the 1958 Ford, added a non functional hood scoop, dual headlights and tailights, inverted the side trim and came out with the ugliest car imaginable only to be surpassed in ugliness years later by the Pontiax Aztec.
The original Jeeps appealed to me–form was dictated by function. Of course, the original Jeep didn’t go fast enough to worry about wind resistance, but, come to think about it, neither does a cow.
