The first Model T was produced in 1908. In spite of being described as “wistfully rudimentary,” it changed everything, making the automobile a universal appliance.

they were just being nice

Despite its flaws — the car had no speedometer or oil gage and the headlamps ran so hot at high speeds they were known to explode — by 1920, more than half of all the cars in the world were Model Ts.

Competitors became more skillful at generating demand, introducing expanded product lines to cater to all price points. And consumers, responding to the growing ubiquity of car ownership, sought ways to personalize their vehicle ownership experience and embraced, wholeheartedly, the “new model year” concept introduced by General Motors.
