With this RV as inspiration, 18+ years ago, why are RV manufacturers still encrusting their rigs with all kinds of very un-aerodynamic things sticking out into the wind?

I found a message online from the builder of the Navette that he has one from 1994, a bunch of parts and all the molds etc for sale for $100,000

The design would have to be modified for a current chassis, but think of the possibilities with direct injection diesel and other new tech. A 20+ MPG RV would be very nice, even if it does somewhat resemble a StarSpeeder 3000 from the Star Tours ride.
