OMG. My kids mother was given a choice by her father in 1972 between a new Chevy Nova or a new AMC Hornet. She chose the Hornet!!! Big piece of junk!
What is it with chicks and weird cars? My GF in the mid-70's had an AMC Gremlin. It looked like a blank flange. When we moved to CO it started overheating bad what with elevation and temperature changes. We had to continue the journey at night.
Sister buying a car in 1973? I was only 9 then. Goodness you must be old!Sister got a hornet at ken braddy ford in ada bout 73. She gave it away at 350,000 miles. Ez starts cold weather. Super reliable.
Her father sold cars? Was the car a gift? I would have taken the Nova if given a choice between the two and traded it in on a new Toyota.OMG. My kids mother was given a choice by her father in 1972 between a new Chevy Nova or a new AMC Hornet. She chose the Hornet!!! Big piece of junk!
Harley was owned by AMF not AMC, they just about put them out of business with their piss-poor quality control.The only AMC I could ever see as anything but junk (Including the AMC years of Harley-Davidson) but it doesn't actually exist:

A terrarium always came to mind.....They were amazingly roomy inside, but yeah... they kinda looked like a greenhouse on wheels.

Have three Jeep XJ Cherokees....2000 (urban), 2001 (farm duty), 1999 (mountains/swamps/anywhere prepped). They will go anywhere with minimal mods. Four-wheel drive only allows one to get stuck in places one could not reach with two-wheel drive.......But, those are some great places to be stuck!!!! One meets the nicest people when stuck in a Jeep!!!! The inline 6 is indestructible if one changes the oil regularly. Sadly, rust is their Achilles Heel.Jeep is a great vehicle
