Nobody. But everything I've researched suggests that lower and longer will get better fuel mileage than taller and shorter. There have been examples of station wagons with more interior space that have more power, cost less and get better fuel mileage than similarly specked crossovers.
Plus the longer and shorter roof is better for amateur radio antennas. One of my car antennas is 17.5 feet long and works best smack dab in the middle of the Prius's roof.
