125 years ago today, on 04-June-1896, Henry Ford test drove his first automobile, the Quadricycle. The original vehicle is on display at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan (http://www.thehenryford.org/)..
I know Henry Ford was a bad guy in his anti-Semitic views and the way he treated his poor son, but I have always admired his engineering ideas. One that he held from his very first car, the Quadricycle, was that autos should be built lightly but strongly.
