Default Re: Met a Ford worker

I too have regrets. My dad (born 1907) once told me about my granfather's trucking business in Toronto which was the first to switch from horse and buggy trucking to the new trucks powered by gasoline. He told of a time he was driving one of the trucks down a hill in Toronto near the Tip Top Taylors building when he saw a wheel rolling down the road beside him. He thought some poor soul had lost his wheel. He soon learned it was his. I don't know but it must have been Model T trucks if the switch over was from wagons. So many lost opportunities. Bill G
