I hauled a lot of Pontiacs right up to 1993.To me he most "exciting" Pontiacs were from 1957 up to 1981. After that they were so toned down none had the excitement to get me to buy another new Pontiac. Pontiac let the buyers down right up to the end in 2009. Yes it was a shock but we saw it coming. That was the one thing about hauling cars. We were the very first to "test" them right out of the plant before they were loaded on the trucks. And again when off loaded at the dealers. Those rear tires were broken in before you got them. LOL

Not every one was "tested" but a good share of them were. Especially if it was a car that had any hype to what was under the hood.... but usually it was a big disappointment for any Pontiacs after 1981. Yeah, all of the Trans AM models too because of the lack of interior room, and the power the government robbed from the engines.
