I was thinkink it would be micro-macro dilemma. Because some customers prefer these things but, they may not be right for everyone else.

the trouble is that discrepancies also looks corrcet because there is a difference between the venefits a customer see from a market offering and the costs of obtaining those benefits. aka the fun factor verses the gas price and pollution

i don't think it has to do with marketing ethics or consumer needs at all.

I think its the discrepancies in customer value.

It could be consumer needs, but not for all consumers. For example, if a family has 4 or 5 children, then they would need a 6 or 7 passenger vehicle for family uses, including long trips, ferrying kids to school or home, etc.
But since not all consumers have needs like that, I think Ms. Sue is right -- consumer value -- what the consumer values.
