The production numbers. The Corvair was produced in who knows how many,
while the T3G was produced in some 42,000 units. I guess not too many made
it to the US, and I have the feeling Nader did VW as a whole, not pursuing
the specific models, rather trying to ban VW totally. I say the same thing I
saw on a Corvair license plate I saw in a mag: F NADER.
