Savage is his professional nom de plum. His actual surname is Weiner...
And somebody still needs to tell him about Corvairs. We have enough
bad press as it is, don't need national talk show hosts perpetuating
uneducated caustic remarks about 'Vairs.
I also sent an e-mail to Hagerty, regarding their yet-again posting
of the top-10 list of "questionable car designs", in which Corvairs
were included... and got a condescending reply about how it was all
"good natured" jabbing. Or something.

So: It would appear by the reply that Hagerty considers the Corvair
to be among the notably dubious attempts at automotive innovation.
Ahh... what a great way to attract Corvair owners to the Hagerty ranks.
