I feel like the "militarization" look of consumer vehicles is being overlooked by many.

From the color, to matte, to huge grills or sleek looks.

It looks like the recent VW vehicles have all defaulted to this worst kind of gray: it's not just lifeless, it's devoid of light and expression and joy. I see it in all new Skodas and quite a few VWs.

I want to ask the designers WHY?!

If it's the matt grey that you can get certain Skoda models in, I have to say, I disagree. I think its eye catching and different.
I think it's eye catching precisely because it's so bad.
trucks in particular. I would love a small truck but in the USA they just don't sell small trucks. They are all huge behemoths.
