I can also attest that the shape of the rear of our cars, and the absence of the AC condensor, literally sucks crap and dust and all kinds of stuff up from the road, and ultimately, into the engine if running open stacks.
Mt transaxle and engine block always has a pile of road debris after every drive, especially if I've driven through any dirt.
I say all this with my vast knowledge gained from the 4 or 5 hours of driving time I've gotten out of my car. But it'll be back on the road next week.
