The Edsel was not a "lemon". It was a line unwanted by then chairman of
Ford
Robert Mcnamara, who did everything he could to stop it before it was even
called "Edsel", and everything he could afterwards, finally succeeding in
Nov
1959. Being released during a recession in the USA didn't help either.
It had a very successful introduction despite his meddling, hardly a
lemon.
