I agree, the front end looks bad...

If it wasn't so boxy it wouldn't look nearly as bad.

I found the 2nd video, where they towed, fascinating. Being it's a test in a pre-production vehicle, it's hard to draw conclusions without giving them the opportunity to revisit some of the tuning and have another go at it.

Cost is ALWAYS the buzz/kill.

Which made Maverick (and Rav4) unique. Hybrid tech at no additional cost.
