Just a joke now...take it easy... :laugh: :grin: :wink: 

I owned and drove a few whales in my youth as well:

* '67 Pontiac Bonneville convertible
* '69 Old Delta 98
* '65 Cadillac Coupe de Ville
* '75 Cadillac El Dorado

Wow, I loved the Bonnie for all the wrong reasons.  What a beautiful car.  Funny that the earlier cars are more desirable.

* 389 cu. in. Tri-Power motor
* Automatic with console, with vacuum gauge

* Heavy...but it would "Get Up And Go" on a 70 mph kick down!!

Ford rejected the minivan and what became the K car. (Yes, the Chrysler minivan was derived from the K)
Ford rejected both concepts.



Bad move, Henry.


Lead, follow or get out of the way.
If you can find a better car, buy it.

Bad move, eh? Chrysler has been bankrupt more times than I can remember and now gets sold off every few years. Ford? Not so much. And the thing with daring people to find a better car? Best thing that ever happened to Toyota and Honda. Cause they did. He certainly saved Chrysler but it wasn't because the product was any good! It was mostly snake oil.  :laugh:
