The Edsel was, indeed, a major flop. However, there weren’t piles and piles of them that had to be scrapped. All were simply sold, though likely at a less than the desired price. The Edsel was a quite usable car. It just looked bad.

Ironically, the Edsel nose was resurrected for some late 60s Pontiacs, but not as ugly. Case in point...
