Funny, I was unaware that you could drive from pole to pole. Those pesky open bodies of water get in the way.

The key is it can be done. Still not a vehicle I'd want at this stage, but then I'd have wanted no part of a Model A when they first came out either.

The difference is that no state government was mandating that you buy a Model T (or the later Model A), and the federal government wasn't giving billions of dollars of taxpayer money to the horseless buggy industry, nor was any government exempting those new-fangled contraptions from existing regulations.

MSG Thomas Currie Actually I can recall my grandfather telling us that he got his first tractor in the 30s because of government subsidies that paid him for producing more than he could with horse driven equipment .

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - true enough, but the subsidy wasn't for buying the tractor.
