First color photograph of a car…?

Articles like the one I’m about to link below absolutely fascinate me.

Presented on jalopnik.com and written by Jason Torchinsky, he believes he has found…

The very first color photograph of a car

I’ll spoil the article a bit but I think Mr. Torchinsky is probably right.

This is assuming, as he does, no other photographs are found from before that time taken by the same gentleman (I don’t want to SPOIL the whole article, but the person who took the photograph is indeed one of the giants of that sort of stuff).

One more SPOILER, the photograph in question. From way back in 1906…

Absolutely fascinating stuff!

Looking for a new car…?

Then you may want to avoid these cars, presented on autoblog.com:

Five Least Reliable Cars

I’m happy to say that none of the five cars presented in this list were ever on my radar.  In fact, of the five, the Jeep Cherokee is the model I’m most familiar with, though I’ve never actually owned one (or know anyone who has).  Nonetheless, I like the look of the vehicle and, if I had an interest in getting an SUV, I might have considered it.

After reading this report, I can safely say it’s off that hypothetical list now!
