My current mood favors the crazy Mercury Turnpike Cruiser. Even the name is over the top!
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Tough choice! I'll go for the less fussy Olds.

I absolutely love both but the Olds wins by a nose.

If anyone on this Forum has to ask or wonder which one I voted for, then you've not paid attention to my posts over the last 20 years!

Olds by a country mile; Mercury styling tanked in '57-'59.

Olds by a mile. My #1 Olds '62 Starfire, My # 2 Olds '57, #3 '63, I have no interest in the rest of the Oldsmobiles.

Like the Mercury, but love the Oldsmobile.

I voted for the merry Rocket 88 Oldsmobile although I do like the garishness of the TPC.

Had to go for the Olds too.
