    The Hudson Super Six - so poorly designed and underpowered that it never was never able to establish a reputation as a racing legend… The DeSoto - imagine the audacity of the manufacture to sell a car with an engine that would start to leak and burn oil after seven decades…. AI….

    Shitty Robovoice.
    Images of extensively modified cars in a video purporting to present shortcomings of the originals?
    The pachyderm in this parlor is that all production of civilian automobiles was suspended early in 1942 until mid-1945 due to some unpleasantness in Europe, Africa, and the Pacific basin. Some deemed production of weapons and other defense equipment to be of greater importance. See also references to ration stamps for various food items, road fuel, tires, and the like.
    Claims that the Kaiser Special styling was dated when in fact, at introduction the cars from Kaiser and Studebaker were the most advanced on the road while the other manufacturers were chugging along with mildly facelifted 1942 models as late as 1949? And when new models eventually came out from GM and Ford and Chrysler, the profiles closely resembled the Kaiser and Studebaker. The torpedo fastback styles quickly faded from the market in favor of the "three-box" design themes.
    Likewise, new models from Hudson and Pakkard were thoroughly up-to-date at introduction. Hudson's step-down unit construction proved well-nigh impossible to update year by year so that aside from reshuffling trim, a '53 model was almost indistinguishable from a '48, but Hudson's NASCAR record in the early fifties running a side-valve six against OHV V8s from the competition speaks for the superiority of its chassis engineering.
    Packard's "high price" reflects its prestige at the top of the top of the American car market.
    Studebaker Champion was a low-priced model with power-to-weight matching V8 Fords. The Champion was good for speeds in excess of 80 miles per hour, competitive for its time.
    The Jeepster was not a ick-up truck, it was a four-passenger phaeton.
    The cars presented here were, for the most part, typical of the entire market (notable excetion the Davis Divan) and in the immediate post-war years, people were putting down deposits for whatever car the dealer could promise would be available first.

    By 1960 our beautiful 1958 Chevrolet was so badly rusted it was replac with a Rambler Classic station wagon. Itr was a decent car, although not as zippy as the V8 Chevrolet. The only breakdown was the gas tank falling out.

    Most of these cars were considered pretty decent cars for their time and weren’t “shameful” vehicles at all. Many of them had interesting innovations, and looks, that were appreciated by significant numbers of consumers. The companies eventually went out business because economies of scale meant that larger manufacturers could out-compete the smaller manufacturers because of their lower unit costs, thus allowing them to invest more to even further outstrip their small-company rivals, all of whom wound up merging with other smaller manufacturers, but all of these small fry manufacturers eventually threw in the towel.

    The alleged shortcomings of all of the cars described is a steaming load of BS, I have owned examples of several of these, and the only shortcoming of any of them is the sad fact that they all went out of business, the big three that remain are the worst of the automobiles that the USA had going on, what a sad state we are left with😢

    So every one of these cars were losers because of three things. Style, underpowered, and unreliable. But the style on some of these were similar to the GM and Ford models, most cars then were underpowered by modern standards, and reliability was poor in most cars then.

    Thanks for sharing your lack of accurate information, like the DeSoto that was in production for seven decades between 1939 - 1952, a Jeepster pickup without a pickup bed, an exhibition of the technological shortcoming of an AI voice that mispronounced the script and a useless animated figure at the lower left of the screen, to cause us to think it might actually be the human reading the dialog. Twenty-two minutes wasted.

    I don't even know where to begin with your "review". First of all, the independents didn't have a chance due to the big 3 underpricing & grabbing as much raw material & suppliers as possible after WW2 & then Korea in '50 & by '53 it was all over. The cars weren't all that bad. I stopped watching this nonsense & could not believe you bad mouthed the '40 Ford Deluxe V8 which is one of the pre-war Fords that hot-rodders considered to be the holy grail of cars to modify & has stood the test of time very well.
