“my Mom’s Pinto”
While wearing a much younger man’s clothes I was crammed into the back of one of those things with a couple other suckers, and we were on an icy I-70.
We were bumped from behind, and I almost kicked that big rear window out. But we didn’t burst into flames that day. Remember that minor defect?
The Volt? Who knows. Maybe you’re fried and shocked to death.
Not really. Based on a search of “Ford Pinto Exploding” I was ~4 or 5 y/o. But like I said, it was the American Trabant - a POS deathtrap.
One good memory of the Pinto: A drive-in double feature of “The Island of Dr. Moreau” and “Star Wars”.
