Edsel Ranchero

The Edsel was introduced on E-day, September 4, 1957. These cars had many innovations includingt the pushbutton teletouch automatic transmission. warning lights for low engine oil, parking break engaged and engine overheating.
The most memorable feature of the Edsel was the Horse Collar or Toilet Seat Grill.

A hard look at sales figures shows the #cybertruck to be a bigger flop than the #Edsel, a name synonymous with failure. It looks like a dumpster; it's had eight recalls in a year; and its sales are 84% lower than predicted. No genius, Musk is just a Nazi.

The #Cybertruck was an intelligence test. If you bought one you failed.

Here’s a rare sight - an Edsel. Edsel was a short-lived brand launched by Ford in 1956. Named after Henry Ford’s son Edsel, it was intended to occupy the market territory between mainstream Ford cars and the more up-market Lincolns. Ironically, one reason Edsel struggled and failed was that this gap was to a degree already covered by Mercury, a brand created by Edsel Ford himself in 1939.
