This blog will expand on themes and topics first mentioned in my book, "The Automobile and American Life." I hope to comment on recent developments in the automobile industry, reviews of my readings on the history of the automobile, drafts of my new work, contributions from friends, descriptions of the museums and car shows I attend and anything else relevant.

"My Mother-in-Law the Car;" What would be an Appropriate Car for your dead Mother-in-Law to Inhabit?
I absolutely hated this show when I was kid. It was stupid, and at age 17 I had no patience for such a ridiculous TV farce. Ann Southern was a great lady and actress, but her voice could not enhance one of the worst entertainment ideas ever. At least that was my hateful thinking at the time. Now maybe I need to reconsider the value of this program. Ever drive the car of a lead loved one? Do you feel the presence of that person? Be honest.
Maybe reincarnation into a car is a bit far-fetched, but the link between things and the human spirit can be quite real.
As an aside, what kind of car would your dead mother-in-law inhabit?
An AMC Gremlin?
A Pontiac Aztek?
A 1948 Packard?
A 1959 Rambler?
