'70s clunkers, the ones that were intended to wear out in a couple years. There'd be no
seatbelts, safety glass, collapsable steering columns, crumple zones or safety devices of
any kind. Leaded gas would be the order of the day and sulpher would be pumped out of
every diesel engine.
Those were precisely the cars the majority of the public BOUGHT!!! So
who's the idiot? The car companies make exactly what they perceive the
public will buy! Sometimes their perception is skewed by the
demographers they hire to tell them what to build.........
