^^^ oh that's why you like them so much. But I guess I don't follow why you would want the rear end to be extra heavy

Here's an extremely crude rendering of what a boat tail might look like.



Would this actually help? Or would the air be so disrupted by the front of the vehicle that it will never have a chance to smooth out and take advantage of any aerodynamic enhancements made to the rear?
