        The Edsel got good performance reviews, but the front end styling went over like a lead balloon. Widely called "that toilet seat grill."

        Or, if your Mom was around, that "horse collar grill."

        My Dad ended up with a Corvair. Very good gas mileage due to sitting in the garage because it wouldn't run.

        A pearl blue hardtop 67 corvair is the most beautiful Detroit iron ever made😎 Certainly not the most reliable, but that wasn't an option🤔

        Used Edsel & a 20 inch Pfizer insulin inhaler never tested w/ patients as classic BAD PRODUCT DESIGN examples. Products failed.

        Sadly it was a lot more ugly up close it had all the bells and whistles of the day but it was an ugly hunk of steel.

        I attended Edsel Ford HS in Dearborn MI. Always a source of pride, tho the car wasn't.
