I had a '73 Mustang. It wasn't exactly svelte but it was comfortable. Then 
came the Mustang II, a glorified Pinto. Then came the ones built on the 
Fox based generation that was slightly larger than the Pinto. My next car 
was a Camaro. GM never quite lost the thread until they killed the Camaro 
last year. I can't wait to see what the plug in version looks like unless 
GM looks at the collapsing e-vehicle sales and restores its sanity.
