Slant 6 love is the QAnon of car fandom. It's a joke that grew out-of-hand and became a cult.

And I mean... I made fun of friends with Ford Mavericks. You could get those with V8s. I made fun of friends with AMC Javelins which, in retrospect, wasn't a wretched car. I had a friend with a Pacer - he wasn't entirely rational and it was best to let it be. And I was saddled with a Falcon Futura, one of the least-appealing deathtraps to emerge from Detroit.

But do please go on. I would love to see an image of your platonic ideal of Dodge Dart. Remember, this is for posterity.
