    Agree with all except the Explorer. It was a market leader, hardly a "worst".

    My dad had a Chevett with over 100k and no problems.

    Explorer must be wrong, pritty reliable, could take a beating and Firestone recall has nothing to do with the truck itself.

    SVX? Really?

    The two piece windows could be opened without wind buffeting up to 75 MPH. "Ridiculous" indeed.

    Yeah, it pretty much single-handedly created a new segment, much like the Dodge Caravan did. Yeah, there were SUVs before the Explorer but they were always a tiny niche, much like the Dodge minivan (remember the Econoline minivans of the 60s).

    I agree the Explorer shouldn't be on that list. Replace it with the Lincholn Navigator or Cadillac Escalade. Although the little two door Explorer was pretty gay looking.

    I'm really happy they got the Pontiac Aztec on that list. That vehicle was an abortion with the coat hanger still stuck in it.

    I saw a Corvair convertible recently ... it was pretty clean looking. I'd take it over a POS Explorer any day ... probably would not drive it too fast though given its problems.

    Ah! They need to add the Chevy Trailblazer. For more than just the obvious reasons.
