Personally, I question whether this particular Dodge ever deserved definitions 1 thru 4, but with the "modifications" shown in your pics, it rapidly moved towards definition #5 or perhaps more rearward on the animal.....:eek:
As for your "insufficiently-coffeed" attempt to rename it as a Comet, maybe your Mercury is just in retro-degrade or maybe you just subconsciously wanted to apply some of the like-named cleanser to it in hopes it would lengthen or just go away.....:LOL::LOL:
