so many of those simply want 'the Jeep', the one that looks as they have always looked and is called a Jeep. They aren't going to buy a Subaru made to look kind of like a Jeep.

It's not like someone is going to sell 20,000 a month of something else, and 5,000 a month isn't that many to justify the R&D, a new factory line, etc.
