For U.S. vehicles:
The 1996 Ford Taurus that debuted for 1995.
I would like to nominate the future 2013 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Sure it’s not fair to judge a vehicle which is not even in production yet, but no matter how good it is (if it is any good), it will never be what the original Wagoneer was. Those will be some tough shoes to fill.
The 1988 GM full-size pickups, and the 1992 GM full-size utilities that followed soon thereafter. The interior was simply horrendous. Cheap hard plastic everywhere, combined with trim & panel gaps that could sometimes be mistaken for the Grand Canyon.
They are durable, reliable workhorses, but if you seek a workhorse with quality and refinement, look elsewhere, such as Ford’s pickups from the same era. Stay away from GM.
