"THE LAW IS A ASS"
(Mr. Bumble, Character in 'Oliver Twist", by Charles Dickens)
"TIME/CNN IS A ASS"
(Big Tracks, Character in North Texas)
There is some really cool cars on that list, who cares what some jerk at time has to say. But thanks for posting.
LOL "the front grill of the 58 Edsel looks like a womens....******". Funny I never looked at it like that before?? :3dSMILE: I'll never be able to look at an 58 Edsel the same way again and not think of that. :LOL:
And the Model T?? Who does not love the T?
Interesting list thanks!
Kewl, I've had 5 of them on the list!!!!! The clown who made up the list probably drives a Volvo SUV!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
i had a gremlin with a 302,it was a blast
I thought that the list was bogus but interesting.
yea. 1909 model T, first mass production car, made cars affordable, how can that be bad.
Ralph Nader must have helped to compile that list. :mad:
Probably made up bythe NY Times, Car & Driver/Road & Track and Motor Trend.
To include an XKE, an Aston Martin or even an '09 Model T is ludicrous. And this must be the first 'worst of' car list that I never owned one of the nominees. Probably too late to find a driveable Pinto or Chevette.
You can find the writer's true feelings in a line that he used describing the 1909 T ...
It's simple, he (or she) hates cars in general and looks at all cars as a blight upon humanity.Quote:
conferred to Americans the notion of automobility as something akin to natural law, a right endowed by our Creator. A century later, the consequences of putting every living soul on gas-powered wheels are piling up, from the air over our cities to the sand under our soldiers' boots.
edsel, the car with the c**t in the front :LOL:
The people who sit around and think up this stuff have way to much time on their hands. I suspect they probably aren't old enought to remember any that were made before 1980. Granted they were probably correct on about a dozen of the 50 cars, but they were way off on the other 38.
Opinions are only valid to the person giving the opinion.:LOL:
Opinions are like a$$ho.......Oops! I mean, Kiss albums! Everyones got one!;)

In looking through this list of miserable garbage I find that I have owned some of these cars, but I was too stupid to realize that they were no good.
I learn that the 1980 Chrysler Imperial had an engine "cursed by God".
A THREE EIGHTEEN!!!!!!
Had I known that I wouldn't have been running one of those lousy blobs of excrement in my Dodge for the last six or seven years.*
I'm so ashamed.

P.S. I'm wondering just what qualifies that jackass (or those jackasses) to make such judgements. For some time "Time" magazine has fit a description that was often applied to the old "Saturday Evening Post":
"Useless! No longer worth reading and too slick to....... uh ........ use in the outhouse"
