That's why GM had to go to the government for money, and Ford did not. #boss

@x23: How much MPG's does a Fusion Hybrid get anyway? Whatever it is, I'm pretty sure it trumps anything the Buick gets. Actually, I'm pretty sure its more then anything GM makes right now. #buickregal

@tonyola: Except for the last remark (something about Tempos and awfulness, that I frankly do not understand at all), I'm not seeing anything negative here.

@MrHowser: I almost, almost did. But since ya' ask.

@Chrisnyc1213: Appearances are subjective. I don't think the Regal is ugly, or the Taurus good looking. The problem is, the Regal is about as bland as they come. Look at it.

I do not approve. Those are Alaskan plate colors. Just doesn't look right. #licenseplates

For every Bob Lutz, there is an Ed Whitacre. Or two. #edwhitacre

Oh no, less than 2,000 Pontiac G5s? What will we do? #pontiacg8gxp

Attention World: There is no reason whatsoever to buy this vehicle. There are more fuel efficient cars available, and more powerful ones (Taurus SHO anyone?). #buickregal

@Sam Smith: I'm used to it, believe me. Nobody likes my car. Still, I'll start cussing anyone out who thrashes on 'em. Its just who I am. :) #topten

@alexander_the_car_salamander: That's why I didn't get the ticket. ;) #qotd

This is Ford Tempo Fanatic's official response to this, this pathetic excuse for a Jalopnik article.

@Paul Y. don't drive too fast.: Ford Topaz. The Mexican market rendition of the Ford Tempo (it was identical to the American Tempo, save for the Topaz light-bar grill).

Speeding in a Ford Tempo. #qotd

I agree. I'm just a child really, but I think my skillz are better then my elders. Specifically my mom. Who, last Friday, drove off with the Tempo's rear passenger door open. I, have never done that. #snl

OH OH OH HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT! From 1984 to 1987, the Ford Tempo and its Mercury sibling the Topaz, were designed to take absolutely no damage in front end collisions 5MPH or under. Zero. Not a dime in damage. At the time, car makers were only required to have bumpers that would withstand a 3MPH collision.

Yay! We're adequate! #subarulegacy

First time I heard of a diesel V8 made by GM was in a fake-wood-paneled Caprice wagon. Non-runner, and its in a personal junk yard full of goodies from Corvairs to AMC Eagles that will never see pavement again. #1979cadillaceldoradobiarritzdi...

That European Ranger is really what we need. Its possibly the only worthy fate of our Ranger. It would be worlds better then the fat ass Colorados and Dakota's we have now. #fordka

Anything that is not a Lincoln Town Car. #qotd
