Rocky Road Ice Cream would've been all right.
No one would want a Detroit. Ever.
My hubby would add, for most of these cars except for Honda and Mustang, “piece of shit.”
and then there's Chevy Nova - they kept it. It sounded fancier in the Spanish. English truth in advertising - No Go
Dodge also kept Dakota. But without the North or South, how do we know which side it's on?
I want to drive an Emu! The comments made me chuckle, as well. But what's especially amusing is some of the lame monikers like the Ford Focus. In fact, I found a list. Heh...

If Ford had kept Mr. Ed, I'd have bought one.
I need a Jeep Thing-a-majig.
I would buy a rocky road
I used to drive a Ford Mr Ed - best car ever :-D
I vote for the lamb chop! Imagine? Sounds so cute.
I feel very thankful that I could read that awesome article. Thanks for sharing. Keep posting.
