Nothing. It was a very progressive design for 1956 plus in that model, NO CENTER PILLAR. Actually, the one big mistake they made for years is that they used the same rear suspension as the sedans, which had coil springs on top of the rear axle, so the floor in the way-back was several inches higher than anyone else's,…

How about "estate". Maybe that's why they are more popular in the UK.

Not sure it counts if the third color is fake wood. But of course at that time real tricolors were made. Extra points for coral.

With the shape of the rear, like a Murano it's really more of a giant hatchback.

Siennas and Odysseys are better, but Chrysler will eventually replace the current one which is a facelifted model from the Dark Days of Chrysler.

Notice that like the 1938 Ford interior depiction, the 1958 Chevy is an artist's deception. Longer, lower, and wider was the thing, and that's what the artist did to the real car. Although the 1958 Chevy was the first year with a frame that allowed footwells so the car could be a few inches lower with the same room, a…

True, the less than full width bodies limited width. It's particularly obvious in the front seats of cars of that era, as the body narrowed father toward the front. But the rear seats in directions other than the width were human sized and comfortable. No knees in the air. My ancient Pontiac minivan with a bench back…

Any minivan.

A Suburban isn't a crossover. It's a station wagon conversion of a full sized pickup truck.

That's what you get for stupidly screwing up the car's suspension so you look cool. Except you don't.

Modern cars with much better structures, crumple zones, airbags all over the place etc. are way safer already than a few years ago. The death rate is already half of what it was, and the average car in the US is over 11 years old. If every car was from the current crop, the death rates would be a lot lower. In a few…

I got one cool thing once at W-S: A can of Seville orange stuff, which is bitter orange marmalade without the sugar. So you add your own cheap sugar, cook a while and there you have a ton of marmalade. Or use half and freeze the other half for later.

Doesn't have a torque converter element in there? It's supposed to be OK.

Too bad the aspect ratio is wrong, obviously. It is compressed horizontally, instead of showing black bars a the top and bottom of the screen.

By far the most cubic feet inside for anything its size. And back seats that fold flat.

That was one of Alec Issigonis's ideas for the original Mini.

Fake retro 50's style diners do though. There was one decorated just like that interior in San Francisco. Don't know if it's still there.

Like the XKE, it's over halfway there.

The emergency facelift really improved it. And the stupid Crossfire grooves were already gone.

Not that one though.
