60年来10大最丑轿车

德索托探险者

    德索托（DeSoto）是克莱斯勒公司在1928年到1961年间生产的一个品牌，现在人们差不多已经不记得它了。探险者的问世也没能阻挡德索托的没落。

    1958版德索托探险者是克莱斯勒公司匆匆上马“新潮外观”的另一个牺牲品。这款车浑身都是毛病：顶篷漏雨，变速器易故障，金属件易锈蚀，转向助力也有毛病。当然这款汽车也有值得自夸之处，它的长度达到了18英尺，自重达2吨。

    只要拿眼一扫，你的视线就会被它高高的尾鳍吸引，若是看得不够仔细，兴许还会把它误为是旧金山金门大桥的入口。尾鳍上三角形的阳极电镀铝，以及后备箱盖上的镀铬装饰也是画蛇添足。

DeSoto Adventurer

    By now almost forgotten, DeSoto was a Chrysler brand manufactured from 1928 to 1961. It can't be said the Adventurer did anything to halt its decline.

    Another victim of Chrysler's rush to the Forward Look, '58 DeSotos were plagued with leaky roofs, flimsy transmissions, rusting metal, and faulty power steering units. They sure made a statement, though, at more than 18 feet long and two tons in weight.

    A side sweep along the flanks directed attention to its fins, tall enough to be mistaken for the entrance to the Golden Gate Bridge. Unnecessary decorative touches included anodized aluminum triangles in the fins and chrome strips on the trunk lid.
