    Or a cow.

      Man. That looks like one happy cow enjoying that breeze. So serene. Very jealous.

    Well… duh? A fairer comparison would be the cow vs jeep. A sea creature vs something designed for land isn’t that great of a comparison because water is thick enough that you’re going to need some kind of aerodynamic (fluodynamic?) adaptation to survive. Air is thin enough that evolution can sacrifice some aerodynamics for other traits.

      At the speed cars move at, air behaves much like water. They’re both fluids. The faster you move the more resistance it has, but also the more dense the fluid is the more resistance it has. Moving quickly through the air is similar to moving slowly through water.

      I think it would be hydrodynamic and screw evolution I want my beef to be as aerodynamic as an F1.

      So is a cow more aerodynamic than a Jeep?

        Even though you already got your answer, yes. Yes they are lmao. All I was trying to say, however, was that it’s not exactly fair to compare “creatures” that exist in two different mediums.

    I’m gonna need to put oversized tires, a jack, and a custom air intake on it for all my trips to Walmart.

    Thats because its… www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-m&sca_es… HYDRODYNAMICALLY DESIGNED

    A Jeep is also less aerodynamic than a brick. Having a Jeep as a daily driver fucking sucks for gas mileage.

    Lobsters go the other way though…

    Wouldn’t a lobster technically be waterodynamic? Or eaudynamic?

      Hydrodynamic

        Ugh, of course! Thank you! So dumb of me. Hydrohomies and all. Appreciate it.

      eauodynamic is so fun to pronounce.

    Cyclist hate this not because of the danger it pose, but because it’s not aero.

    That looks like a TJ generation. I’ve also seen these with the JK (usually compared with a cow). I’d be curious to see the JL/JT, though, because they did a very clever job of rounding it off while making it look like it’s still flat.
