#mercury This is a Far too Brief History of Mercury Established as the Ford mil-line brand between Ford and Lincoln, and intended to compete with Buick and Oldsmobile, Mercury struggled with division reshuffling, platform sharing, and a general lack of focus. While creating some appealing cars, I believe that on their cancellation the auto world shrugged their collective shoulders. Chapters Start 00:00 Formation: 01:15 Launch '38: 02:22 40's: 02:45 '49 Mercury: 03:45 50's: 04:19 60's: 07:28 70's: 09:33 80's: 12:33 90's: 15:52 2000's: 18:55 Cancellation: 20:49 Epilogue: 21:12 Note/Edit - I erroneously said the Capri was *smaller* than the Pinto. I mis-spoke, it was slightly larger. Support independent car creators on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/AllCarswithJon Be sure to follow the Page on Facebook! https://fb.me/AllCarsWithJon
