[pintosnfiats]

Odd, he states that 2.5 million were sold in 10 years though Ford production numbers are at 3.33 million.

all ford bobcats, mercurys, pintos are NEVER have 2 amber yellow lights on the rear taillights,,,

i had one bobcat car did already have 2 amber yellow lights on the rear tailights from the capri car taillights part

[josecchevyracing]

fuel tanks have always been in the rear. the real mistake is not enough reinforcement for rear-ending

[TRJBASS]

Notice they did not show the smith family , because their Pinto got rear ended and exploded into flames.

feel sorry for someone who bought 9 pintos.....

[Annihilator1111]

@13madbob how bad where the Pintos because i never saw one in person and i dont live in America so i dont know whats bad about them such how bad was the quality of the car

[13madbob]

@Annihilator1111 The Ford Pinto had problems with its tank, the tank was in the back and if someone were to hit your Pinto from the rear you car would most likely explode

[Annihilator1111]

@13madbob thats any extremely bad design fault

[RoadCone411]

@Annihilator1111 In fairness, I think a lot of cars had similar design faults at that time. The Pinto was the poster-child, and was probably a flawed car in many ways, but there were others that were nearly as bad. The one single-biggest area that cars have changed in over the last 30 years is occupant safety. It took cars like the Chevy Vega and Ford Pinto to get to where we are today.

@jakesaintsrow123 The sad part is that Ford knew since day 1 and still took 5 years to fix it. Wotta bunch of croox!

[quirpco]

I remember when the post office used those late model Pinto wagons!

[DamnStraightM35A2]

they each needed so many cars so that when one broke down they could use another.....
