When I first met her, the woman who became my wife owned a Corvair and she loved it. Among other things, whenever it snowed, while other cars were spinning their wheels or laying in the ditch, she was tootling merrily along.

When it finally pooped out, her father (a generous man) bought her a Mustang. She liked the Mustang very much, but she was (and still is) a bit nostalgic about the Corvair.

Nader also hated the VW bug, another car that lots of people really liked. For what? Like the Corvair, economy and drivability.

Nader was (is) a major twit. It always struck me as interesting that the Great Guru of Automobile Safety bragged that he didn't own an automobile and, indeed, didn't even have a drivers license.

Like the Pope giving marital advice. . . .
