Been wondering why manufacturers don't use single-piece DSs stock. Seems like it would be cheaper to build that but maybe they use the same drive shafts across multiple platforms is my guess.

The one piece with the CV joint costs more to manufacture and it transmits slightly more vibration from the chassis and engine. From what I've been told the pennypinching dept. at ford made the decision to give us clunky worthless 2 piece driveshafts..
