From the article:
>> The jeep designers (unh-huh) seem to have chosen utility over comfort.

Is "unh-huh" the name of the company? If so, is it supposed to be in lower-case?

(Unh-huh) was a sarcastic remark. I don't believe there was really a professional jeep designer, just a bunch of b*****d vehicles that were created to make use of slurplus jeeps after the wall, and evolved, animal-like, into the form we see now.
