“and found them to be mostly lousy cars for long-distance driving.”
How can there be any excuse for a car built today to be lousy-driving?
I remember a car I loved to drive: the Chevy Citation. Maybe it was because the alignment guys did a good job.
I remember driving a Citation for distance one night on a very wet road & everytime it hit a little water,I thought it was going to leave the road. Had to slow way down to feel safe. It seemed a better car than some I’d driven(mostly small Fords)but not by much. I wouldn’t spend my money on one for myself. This car was a corporate vehicle. This was not a problem with any of the Buicks or the Olds that I owned.
