2. I Have A Soft Top, And I Have A Hole In The Top Right In The Front Driver Side, Just About The Size Of A Cigarette Butt. Any Ideas On How To Repair It Would Be Greatly Appreciated.
3. Why Is The Gas Tank So Big, But The Mileage So Small?

1: High center of gravity with a short wheelbase. Any little gusts of wind or change in the slope of the road surface will be felt more than in most other vehicles.
2: Its probably not 100% repairable. Im sure you can get a patch of some sort, even if its just a piece of duct tape. Maybe someone else will be of more help here.
3: Its a square box. Look at the shape of the windshield, grill and rearend compared to other vehicles. Not very aerodynamic. On top of that, the 4.0 inline six (not a V6), while it is torquey and reliable, isnt the most fuel efficient engine design.
