Jeez, touchy send key!
 
Anyway, I didn't see the Vega - the third entry into the American bad
economy car trifecta of the 70's, and usually on lists such as these! :)
But I guess since it doesn't blow up or look hideous, it doesn't make
the list.
 
BTW, what was Mopar's compact entry in the 70s - the Valiant? I always
thought it a bit large for a compact...

I was getting nervous but alas my Pontiac Aztek DID make the list 
keeping it's record blissfully negative. 

Heck, even my old favorite the Corvair made this list! 

But in both of those cases he ended his diatribe on a slightly up beat 
stating that his family had a Corvair they loved, and acknowldging on 
the Aztek that "under all that ugliness, there was a useful, competent 
crossover".
