    23 October 2011 | voaspecialenglish.com The Rough Road That Gave the Edsel a Bad Name AP A 1959 Edsel Ranger (You can download an MP3 of this story at voaspecialenglish.com) This is the VOA Special English Technology Report. ANNOUNCER: "They'll know you've arrived, when you drive up in the nineteen fifty-eight Edsel -- the car that's truly new, from nameplate to taillight." The Ford Motor Company built several versions of the Edsel from nineteen fifty- eight to nineteen sixty. Ford ended production of the car after just three model years because of weak sales. The Edsel has been described as both a "colossal failure" and "a car ahead of its time." John Heitmann is a history professor at the University of Dayton in Ohio and vice president of the Society for Automotive Historians. JOHN HEITMANN: "It was a car that was controversial in styling. Its horseshoe- shaped grill is still remembered today. The Edsel is kind of the example of the car that never caught on. It's known as the 'disaster from Dearborn.'" 2 Dearborn, Michigan is Ford's headquarters. Professor Heitmann says the biggest problem was that the Edsel arrived around the same time as a recession. He says Americans were beginning to question their values. JOHN HEITMANN: "It's a really curious kind of economic episode. It was actually quite severe but also rather short. But it was at a time when many Americans were reacting to the dinosaur in the driveway. These very heavy, chrome-laden Buicks and other cars -- the fifty-eight Buick had fifty-eight pounds of chrome on it.
