I'd have to disagree there. Having the ability to chose pretty much any feature you want (thinking trucks here) and line then add which engine suits you best gives the most flexibility to the customer. You can mix and match to your hearts content. What's the downside in that?

And specific engines come standard in each line, usually the more expensive/premium the line package the more powerful the standard engine will be for that trim. For the most part though you can get any engine you want regardless of your trim line or features.

All that said, the fact that they offer engines for a single vehicle probably makes that more useful for customers as it gives them the most flexibility.
