I try reason and it just bounces off. I'm going to try one more time. This is the last one.
-Gurney bubbles and trailer A/C unit are not applied to the trailing edge of the vehicle.
-New hybrids are designed as entire vehicles, where the designers are able to tweak and test virtually any part or surface of the vehicle.
-There are more factors in overall Cd than the center profile. Tumblehome, mirrors, plan taper... many if not all of these are adjusted and tinkered with in the design phase of high-efficiency cars.
-The only thing the OP is changing is the trailing edge of the greenhouse.
-You're taking a lot of liberties with the NASA truck, suggesting in one image that it is simply 22 degrees and in another that it matches a scaled template.
-The Volkswagen Golf was designed in the early 70's and was by no means an aerodynamic masterpiece. Picking apart the exact curvature from a non-orthographic image is pedantic.
-I've listened to reports from the aero lab at work and can tell you the car needs to be considered as a whole, not just some 30cm long segment on the back of the roof.

I have patiently tried numerous times to explain where your thinking is in error. Your post #33 is proving to me that you disregard what I say and are unwilling to listen to anyone but yourself. I'm done trying to help you.
