Force of habit.
IOW, the US car companies will have lots of reasons that have nothing to do
with enthusiasts. Why didn't Ford sell a SHO wagon? Couldn't sell a zillion
of them was their answer.
IMO, the people making the decisions at the US companies are so far removed
from the realities of the market that they haven't got a chance...
That sure doesn't explain the Prowler, tho...
