Aside from my thoughts on needing it to keep the numbers high on the initial crash test, why did they put the airfilter in that position in the first place, knowing you would have to change it on a semi-regular basis? Why is the oilfilter not located in an easy to reach location on many cars? Why are there Phillip's head screws and 8mm bolts on the same item, and not just one or the other? Why do I have to remove the air intake and plenum to get to the back side spark plugs on my Hyundai? Why did the auto industry fight the introduction of airbags and the catalytic converter?
HUMAN ERROR/STUPIDITY/GREED, ENGINEERS, & BEANCOUNTERS! :-)
