We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. That’s more than enough data to compare to the Ford Pinto, a car so notoriously combustible that it has become a watchword for corporate greed. Let’s start with the data […]
TL;DR: The CyberTruck is 17 times more likely to have a fire fatality than a Ford Pinto
Agree to disagree. I really hate this era of cars. Take a hot hatch, but make it as ugly as you can. Then make it as heavy as possible and slap an 80bhp iron block in there, that way you have the worst of both worlds in both power and fuel economy. But just for good measure, also give it a 3 speed transmission with no overdrive as one last final fuck you, just to make that the car is as slow—and gas mileage is as terrible as allowed by the laws of physics.
The 70s was by far the worst era for cars, especially American cars.
Even if I were to agree with you, the beauty of a 70s car is only skin-deep, given everything else that is wrong with them that I already mentioned in my previous comment.
And the Pinto is actually cool looking.

Early 70’s was ok. 75-80? Atrocious
Whaaaaaaat??? 70s cars are beautiful!

Yeah, your laughably untrue comment that is pulling facts from some cheap economy cars in an attempt to generalize an entire era. lol
