I read an article recently that said that the Datsun B-210 was voted one of the ugliest cars of all time. Now, just looking at the picture, it would be hard to argue that it is not one of the ugliest cars. I’m not sure why they have it pictured with a train, because it [...]
Leading, Coaching, & Innovating with Trish McFarlane
Monthly Archives: October 2009
Whatever, Trisha!
