Some Ever-So-Clever Ugly Car Comments
We will try to maintain a central focus on our own content and limit access to other sites so that our dear readers think that we’re the only place out there even “thinking” about the aesthetic failures of cars. But sometimes it just seems appropriate to bring in some outside goodies to add some extra flava’ to the mix. We’ll just put it in a category of its own that we’ll call “outside wisdom.”
What convinced us to do this is a site that made us aware of our own little shortcomings. We need some user comments and intense debate about all these cars. Since we don’t have none of that yet, we were intrigued by CarTalk, which had enough quotes from peeps to make a whole page about it. Geez, FuglyRides readers. Get on it! We’re hoping that someday we can do our own little “Funniest reader comments” post. In fact, if you kids get really crackin’ we can do a regular thing. Maybe even vote on it! Man, the options are endless.
For now, we’ve taken the liberty to “transpose” some of the better comments while clearly citing the original source as CarTalk (and even linking it! Seriously. Click it!).
