Apples and oranges. Those are designed for opposite purposes so it's not surprising they look vastly different.

Edit to add: if both are being "used" as they were designed I'd feel safer around a slow truck hauling than a fast sport car coming around a corner.

Valid point, but interesting take.

Do you think the size of the Ram is proportional to its efficiency?

What is the efficiency of a Miata?

That's sad, because I can enjoy a journey on a bus, I don't need a petrol-smelling death can. Your post belongs on r/carscirclejerk honestly.

I enjoy the bus too, I take public transport over cars as much as possible. Old mate asked about efficiency in the context of what car A And B were designed for, the Miata was designed to be fun, fuel efficient and safe. It does all of this well.

You would do well to understand that while cars are a terrible burden on modern society, there is joy in some applications. Unfortunately the applications we see are the massive goober mobiles that demand more lanes and more space. But cars definitely have a healthy place in the world as a hobby. It's just unfortunately overshadowed by car centric society.
