Definitely Didn’t Know This! 7 DUMBEST of the WORST Cars in America in the 1950s

Definitely Didn’t Know This! 7 DUMBEST of the WORST Cars in America in the 1950s

I’m so sick of videos using a thumbnail that doesn’t appear anywhere in the video.

[markbullock]

What shocked me most was the use of Jay Leno as a thumbnail, and then not including him or the thumbnail car in your overly long presentation. Truly a waste of my 34:40 minutes!

There was NO 1957 Edsel. Although it was introduced in Sept 1957 it was a 1958 model. The Henry J was also marketed by Sears-Roebuck as an Allstate. Some of the Henry J models shown are in fact NOT HENRY Js. They are Kaisers.The black "1959" Cadillac shown at the beginning of that segment, is NOT a 1959! FIRE THE EDITOR!!!

[philipsanchez]

I'm curious how a Henry J magically turned into a Kaiser Manhattan.

If everyone reports this AI driven clickbait as misinformation, maybe YT will remove this "junk" content.

I’d suffer the basic offerings of the Yeoman. Great style and enormous load space. ❤😂😂😂😂

29:35 The car pictured here IS the Eldorado Brougham, built by Pinanfarina in Italy and costing about $13, 000. The Brougham was fully equipped, and it featured body lines that were much more restrained than those of the other 1959 models, lines that would spread to the other models in 1960 and 1961. But the white convertible at 29:45 is NOT an Eldorado Brougham, it's an ordinary convertible from that year, and the "striking" tail fins and lights pictured at 30:21 were NOT a feature of the Eldorado Brougham. As far as I know, the Brougham, of which only 99 copies were made, did not come as a convertible.

Yeah, I too got "suckered in" by the Jay Leno thumbnail. That said, as a Hudson owner myself, I have to say that the history provided on the 1954 Hudson Jet was pretty accurate. Though, I don't think it was underpowered as it had a 202 c.i.d., flat head 6 engine powering it.

That 20 minute video took 35 minutes to watch.

[feedingravens]

It seems for the Yeoman the camera handling was meant to SCAN the car to generate a 3D-model, therefore as close as possible in vertical strips covering every square inch of the surface.

[DavidHendricks-cg]

Packard failed to modify engineering and still used babbitted main bearing, a process where molten bronze around the bearing making it a major headache to do an overhaul.

[tinkerstrade]

AI commentary. Compared to 90% of todays cars, every one of these has more "presence" and beauty than is puked out now.

[paulstubbs]

Didn"t have the car shown in the thumbnail - so clickbait

[marshallpeterson]

my dad bought an Edsel new, and told the dealership that it the only he ever had that junked itself as the engine fell out as he was leaving the dealership.

[thesoundsmith]

The pop phrase for the Edsel was "an Oldsmobile sucking a lemon."

[davidparsons]

You failed to mention the Hot Shot's engine which was made of stamped tin rather than cast

[jackrichardson]

I get a headache from watching these videos because it is so jerky and to fast, slow down the changes from one scene to another

[SurferJoe]

Every interruption by advertisements makes me boycot the advertiser 100%. Shame on you YT for shoving this crap into the middle of the video and it is corporate greed to the max.

[diecastandmore]

The Yeoman...by far is the coolest of the bunch in my opinion....seems like it would have been perfect for delivering, plumbers, and handyman types. I honestly liked all of the vehicles in this video and would take ANY one of them over a prius, or most other modern cars. I'd rather have a stripped no frills car that the windows always roll down (because you are the power source) chrome don't get ya home vs fancy crap that breaks 3 days after the warranty expires.

[beanmelano]

Clearly the "less is more" message did not get to narration in this channel.
