Car Trivia
The 1900 Oldsmobile was the first car that was mass produced. However, the 1908 Model T was the most influential of the time.
The 1912 Cadillac was the first mass produced car with a self starter (so that you didn't need to crank it in the front).
The first car to include anit-lock brakes was the 1966 Jensen FF. Did you know that anti-lock brakes were originally developed by the military for aircraft?
The original 1964 Porsche 911 only had a top speed of 130 mph!
Akron, Ohio had the first automobile police patrol wagon....in 1899! I don't know what's more amazing, that the first cop car was put into use in 1899 or that it was Akron, Ohio that did it. lol
