| Ford Pinto |
Cars have come a long way over the years, and thank Goodness for that. It’s good to know that car companies have made mistakes, but have also learned from them. The Ford Pinto is a great example of car companies “learning from their mistakes”.
The Ford Pinto was a car that weighed no more than 2,000 pounds and didn’t cost a dollar over $2,000. But before you start dishing out the cash for this automobile, make sure you know about its gas tank defects. Since the gas tank was located in the back of the car, if you happened to be following a Pinto at say 30 mph and then rear end the car, the gas tank would rupture. If you just so happened to be going 10 mph faster and rear end a Pinto, the car doors would be jammed shut with the passenger inside, engulfed in flames. Talk about a hot car.
