Nah, they are bringing back the Pinto. They are trying to get the same crash results as the first model before releasing it.



Remember the Pinto? I used to see them as a kid and dad used to talk about Ford saving money on the car by cutting safety. Ford said it was better to pocket $49 million (after lawsuits) by not adding the correction to the car ($139 million in cost) and calculated the average human life was worth $200K.
