Was a lot simpler car. And most trips were short enough for a battery powered vehicle. Problem was the Model T was 1/3 the price. |

So... if the model T was a third of the price, and in today's dollars the model T would be $14,000, that would mean that a very crudely built electric car would be $42,000. Being how the Tesla is an engineering marvel that gets a good distance at a staggering pace, it's not so bad priced, eh? |

I remember reading an issue as a kid ... probably back in the late 50's. The back page had a topic or subject that asked a question. To see the answer, you would fold the page in thirds on vertical dotted lines. I remember this particular issue asked what would be the "perfect" car design, combining low cost, reliability and fuel economy, When you folded the page to display the hidden image, there was a picture of a Model T. |

I liked the Model A's a lot more. We had a Model A V-8 rigged as a small "derrick" to lift outboard boats off their delivery trucks and onto dollies in the showroom. Learned to drive at a highly illegal age in the boatyard on that truck and the jeep. |
