🤣 Funny!

Yeesh. 50 years later they're STILL ugly as heck.
True - but a pal in high school had one with the "big" straight six and a 3 or 4 spd manual on the floor, and that stupid thing was pretty quick.

The problem was that Gremlins had a really short wheelbase so once the rear tires were spinning, they would swap ends like nobody's business.

As a teenager, and through college, I drove pharmacy delivery routes to nursing homes (I call it my "drug-running days") around the greater Chicago metro area. The company I worked for used a mix of Gremlins and Ford Pinto station wagons for their fleet. As a consequence I developed a lifelong loathing of badly-designed, poorly-manufactured, cheap cars.
