GM was worst. K Car for all it's faults carried the water for basic transportation for a decent window of time and delivered the profits Chrysler needed.

Ford Pinto perhaps?
AMC Pacer?

When they came out with the GM X Car, i was working in a Pontiac dealership. Me and another guy that worked there, used to laugh at them because we thought they were the ugliest car ever built.

We bought a K-car from a rental company in 1985. Drove it from Florida to Utah with a full trunk, our two daughters in the back, and a roof rack for the reloading supplies the moving company wouldn't take. All went fairly well until we got to I-25 from New Mexico to Colorado, and then the Rockies to Utah. Car could not climb hills with the A/C running - and it was the end of July. Miserable two days, for sure. Truly crappy gas mileage with that roof rack, besides. It was tuned for sea level; the Rockies are not sea level.
Didn't take us long to trade it off.

Still quite a few K-Cars on the road today. Not many X-Cars. That should tell you something...........

my sister bought a ford fairmont 4 cylinder with I think a 4 speed manual. Even with that it would barely drive over the mountains - not even real mountains, I'm talking Maryland Mountains back in the early 80s
