SOME of us DO have a direct line into the auto manufacturers !
If the request comes from a big enough customer I engineer custom non-production features for one of them...

I had a colleague in St Louis who told tales of woe about his Chevette. He said it had a hard time making highway speeds - and this was back in the days of 55mph speed limits He referred to it as the Shove-it. He said that was about the only way to get it going quickly - shove it Doug .

THEE ONLY car built by Chevrolet that was worse than the Chevette was the 3-cylinder 1.0L Chevy Sprint/Geo Metro.
All three were total POS turds that were good for nuthin' but running off cliffs ala Wile E. Coyote style. Total embarassment to the Chevy name.

I saw a dog catch one of those and bury it. I had always wondered what dogs would do if they actually caught a car. <insert Steven Wright face>

My dad bought a used one one time and got SO disgusted with it he took it back to the dealer and threw the keys on the desk and walked out... Went and bought a Ford Fiesta... TERRIFIC cars! (the GERMAN Ford Fiesta back in the early 80's). Later! OL JR PS. The Chevette was their answer to the equally if not surpassingly lousy Ford Pinto... and mom had a Plymouth Horizon, which was ALMOST as lousy as the Chevette by the end... " A turd by any other name... "
