Interesting trio. All have attractive features and I especially like the fastback on the Pontiac.

Despite that, my choices are Hudson, Mercury, then Pontiac. All are nice vehicles to me.

Hudson first, Mercury a close second. To me Pontiac was an also ran until 1957.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I'm going to put a new twist on this.  For me, it's a TIE between the Hudson and the Mercury.  Guess that makes the Pontiac second.  Smile

Mercury styling wins by a nose over Pontiac with Hudson a strong third.  All of them are really nice cars.

49 Merc followed by Pontiac and Hudson, although that fastback has me second guessing my choice.  🥺

Hudson, Mercury a close second, Pontiac a very distant third, I really dislike fastbacks on full-size cars.

I like that Pontiac but the Mercury beats it by a tiny margin.

Pontiac, Mercury, Hudson

Tuned into 1950. Pontiac and Mercury were very popular back then. Hudson was a joke.
