The Pontiac Fiero was known to catch fire and burn to the frame also, how does it not make the list? And the Ford Explorer? Not the start of the SUV craze like the writer suggests, Ford Broncos and Chevy Suburbans and Jeep Cherokees have been around for a long time.

And the Hummer 2 killed the whole idea of independent suspension.




Come to think of it, I lost count of how many first generation Corvairs I saw on fire. They ran the battery cable over the sharp edge of the air shroud. The rest is history, literally.

Oh yeah, sometime in the 70's I remember every third vehicle in the breakdown lane was a flaming Ford, usually a motorhome.
