really BAD ENGINEERING.

There is a Federal law that requires the exhaust outlet to be X-inches behind the rearmost opening portal. Ther is a "vacuum" at the rear window typ due to the air being "spoiled" the the car truncated rear. Aerodynamics are widely misunderstood, that why you see yahoos driving around with their tailgate down trying to improve highway MPG. IT DOESNT WORK and is illegal in many states.
