The link is incomplete. For some reason the close parenthesis does not carry forward in the link. Click on the link and then add the close parenthesis and hit the "go" button. It will work

While I agree that the early '60's Plymouth's were Quite ugly, they quickly changed back and the '65 Plymouth was an exceptionally good looking car. I can't quite see how a couple of years of ugly could have led to Plymouth's demise decades later. This article made no mention of Barracuda, Road Runner or GTX etc. It mentioned some rebadged little cars, but at that time, big cars were still the industry bread and butter.

Simple downsizing was all the rage and Plymouth was the one to go...like Oldsmobile, big corporations with no other solutions that to cut and burn.

Well that just doesn't sound real accurate. At best it is a very simplistic account of the demise of Plymouth. But what can you expect from an encyclopedia that anyone can ad whatever they want. Wikipedia is the absolute worst source for any information and the scary thing is people under the age of 30 use it as a primary source of information.
