The 2nd generation of the Mustang, built between 1974-1978. Designed by Lee Iacocca and based on the the subcompact Ford Pinto platform. It came in basic coupe form, hatchback, or the up scale "Ghia" which had a landau vinyl roof treatment. Engines offered were either a I4 or V6 engine, but a small-block V8 became an option in '75.
During the gas crisis, it sold well, mainly due to the demand of small cars. But this generation is known to Mustang fans as one of the least popular. Mainly due to cheap wimpy Pinto type styling and the lack of a good performace engine. The base coupe and Ghia models were boring looking. And Hatchback models tried to hard to look sporty, what with the "Stallion" or "Cobra" trim. They offered paint jobs with strips going down the hood, a blacked out grill, and lots of plastic body moldings. But in the end the car just looked tacky and overdone, and was all show and no go. Sales declined after '75 and a newer more popular Mustang design would appear in 1979.

One of the worst cars I've ever seen was a rusty 1976 Ford Mustang II "Ghia", painted in white but sporting a ghastly bright red landau vinyl roof, with a red interior.

Get the Ford Mustang IImug. A vocational high school in Marlboro, Massachusetts.
Quite possibly one of the worst schools in the state.
Preppy white kids or Brazilian gang bangers are the majority here. But there is a small minority of Blacks and Hispanics.
The school is known throughout eastern MA as a drug infested hellhole full of future criminals.

Get the Assabetmug. A big car made by American Motors from 1971-1978. The most famous style being the 2 door fast back coupe introduced in 1974. This car was made popular in the James Bond movie "The Man With The Golden Gun", when it's turned into an airplane by the main antagonist. The Matador was also offered as a Sedan and Wagon, but was not a big seller after the gas crisis. Some Police and Taxi companies used them, but not many. The coupes sales died too, as it's styling was not well received by the public. AMC ditched the Matador in 1978 to focus on smaller cars.
The AMC Matador was unappreciated when new, but it was a very solid reliable car. '74 - '78 Coupe models are very rare today.

Get the AMC Matadormug. An unfiltered cigarette popular in the 50's and 60's. They have a rep as the cigarette for tough guys. "Greasers" would usually have packs of them stuffed in their shirt sleeves. They lost popularity as Filtered cigarettes became common, and although they are still made today they are not very popular and also very expensive.

Get the Lucky Strikemug. Introduced in 1941, the Ninety-Eight was Oldsmobiles top of the line model and was a very stylish rear wheel drive land yacht up until the early 80's.
The fuel crisis pretty much doomed the Ninety-Eigh, and all large sedanst. Experimenting with Diesel engines proved problematic in the early 80's, so sales suffered. So in 1985 it was downsized to a front wheel drive generic design that looked like every other GM car at that time. 1991's bloated round restyle proved unpopular too and the model was axed in 1996, to be replaced by the Aurora.

You can probably find a 50's/60's/70's era Oldsmobile Ninety Eight on ebay for a good price. Many were driven by senior citizens when new, and were looked after.

Get the oldsmobile ninety eightmug. The worst job in the Restaurant business, and the lowest paying. Many people do it to start off and work their way up to a cook job, but quit due to the horrible conditions. Plus the staff don't care about you, or your goal of being a cook. They ignore you, while you spend hours cleaning pots and pans. Your arms and hands get covered in greasy dirty water, bits of cruddy food, and at the end of the day you smell horrible and your fingers are messed up from all the soap and chemicals. It's totally not worth the time or the paycheck. Avoid this job at all costs!!!
It's about time they made a machine that cleaned pots and pans instantly. Nobody wants to do Dish Washer work as a career.

Get the Dish Washermug. A terrible TV series that came out in the mid 90's and ended in 2007 (finally). Focusing on the lives of the Camden family in some made up California town. The cast were all physically attractive goody two shoes types, that wore over done make up, and the plots always focused around learning some lesson, and then everything is back to normal. It was basically one of those "we have some minor problem now" but "everything will end well" type shows. Totally unrealistic, aimed to young kids, and if they actually think families act like the Camdens in real life, then they're very dumb.
7th Heaven was just terrible. The blond haired kid Simon was a total twerp who'd get beaten up in real life. Lucy and Mary both dressed like skanks and wore way to much make up, and as for Ruthie she was an annoying brat who went the same way as her sisters as she grew up. I'm convinced the only good character was the family dog, haha.
