Same, a poor man can only afford the best. Not a bad price. Of course, back in 1972...
I have the sticker price from my 1974 brand new Pinto right here in the drawer you feel me? $2295.00.
Hah! I use to drive a pinto, was two in our family. fuck there are washers now you can use with a fuckin phone! Why?
The fucking Pinto was a death trap.
My girlfriend had one.
I have memories of driving on the highway at the 60 mph - until I come to a hill and the Pinto can't climb it faster than 45 mph, and now I am shitting bricks because trucks are baring down on my ass, and a rear end collision brews up the car like a torch.
Of course, you remember that well:)
You haven't lived until you've had sex in the back seat of a Pinto.
If I sound too critical, this was what i was driving at the time:

Lol is that a gremlin? Yeah I was blissfully unaware of the gas tank explosion problems.
It's a pacer - like a gremlin but a lot more bowl.
My mother had one.
