Ditto for the Pinto, except I think Ford came closer to the mark than
Chevy, particularly in the engine compartment (but the styling sucks,
IMHO).


And then there was that annoying bolt next to the gas tank.


Drive anything into anything else that fast and one of them will burst
into flames.


You've been watching too many action movies. "Burst into flames" is not the
normal outcome of a vehicular collision.

I know. But I still think that both the Pinto and the Chevy side-tank
issues were way overblown.
