...need to replace the vehicle with a head-on view of a pig, with the words: "What's the aerodynamic viscosity of mud?"

A 747-400 can transport 524 passengers 8350 miles at a speed of 567 MPH on one fill-up, not because it is weak, but because it is aerodynamic.
Even a Hummer driver ought to be able to understand that.
