The Edsel had DSL in its name justone. Back in 1956, Ford Motor Company realized that there was a void in their selections of mid-size automobiles. While Chevrolet owners could "move up" to a Buick, Pontiac or Oldsmobile (and Dodge owners could advance to a Plymouth or Chrysler), Ford buyers were looking at Mercury alone. The perception was that Ford was losing customers to other manufacturers when the time came to trade-up.

There came the Edsel. I hope you guys know how 'a combination of factors that led to the name "Edsel" becoming synonymous with "failure" ended.'
