Default Re: Model "A" Cars vs. Their Successors

The Model "A" was a stepping stone to more reliable, comfortable and economical automobiles with the new competition of FORD, GM and CHRYSLER. Without significant competitors, the "A" might have been a longer production run like the Lizzie. Imagine all the revolutionary advancements of the components of our cars from safety glass, electric starters, headlights, vulcanized tubeless tires and now seat warmers, self-driving cruise control and backup video cameras...… just think what it will be like in another 100 years.....


Look at all the new electronics out today, every six months things become outdated.
