Many of the “usual suspects” are present.  I figured the #1 dumbest car was going to either be the Pinto or the Edsel.  Spoiler:  It turned out to be one of them, though the other wasn’t on the list at all!

Back in High School I had a first hand experience with the Pinto as a friend of mine at the time had the vehicle and we drove around with it now and then.  What I remember the most about the car was a) it was ugly as hell in its brown/gold interior and exterior color, b) it wasn’t a comfortable car to sit in, and c) it was really noisy.

Hell…it makes no sense at all!!!!

Still fun to look at , though! 😉
