Jalopnik asked readers which vehicles they would erase from history and received nominations including the Mercedes‑Benz G‑Wagon, lifted diesel pickups, the Chrysler PT Cruiser, the last‑generation Lincoln Continental, the sixth‑generation Chevrolet Monte Carlo and early civilian Hummer models.
Readers cited the Mercedes‑Benz G‑Wagon as a conspicuous wealth signal rarely used off‑road and criticized lifted diesel "brodozers" for obstructing visibility and producing soot in urban areas.
Several contributors described the Lincoln Continental as a rebadged midsize platform with an outsized price, and said the Chevrolet Monte Carlo was less practical and less appealing than the similar Impala.
Some submissions argued that the arrival of early civilian Hummer models helped normalize oversized vehicles on public roads, and Jalopnik's thread compiled reader opinions rather than presenting a formal ranking.
This summary is based on coverage by Jalopnik.
