Well... duh? A fairer comparison would be the cow vs jeep. A sea creature vs something designed for land isn't that great of a comparison because water is thick enough that you're going to need some kind of aerodynamic (fluodynamic?) adaptation to survive. Air is thin enough that evolution can sacrifice some aerodynamics for other traits.

At the speed cars move at, air behaves much like water. They're both fluids. The faster you move the more resistance it has, but also the more dense the fluid is the more resistance it has. Moving quickly through the air is similar to moving slowly through water.

So is a cow more aerodynamic than a Jeep? Edit: Nevermind, it got kind of answered in another thread.

Even though you already got your answer, yes. Yes they are lmao. All I was trying to say, however, was that it's not exactly fair to compare "creatures" that exist in two different mediums.

Wouldn't a lobster technically be waterodynamic? Or eauodynamic? What's Latin for water...?

That looks like a TJ generation. I’ve also seen these with the JK (usually compared with a cow). I’d be curious to see the JL/JT, though, because they did a very clever job of rounding it off while making it look like it’s still flat.
