Early Autos

America’s passion for the automobile developed rather quickly in the beginning of the twentieth century. At the turn of that century，there were few automobiles, or horseless carriages，as they were called at the time，and those that existed were considered frivolous playthings of the rich. 5A They were rather fragile machines that sputtered and smoked and broke down often；they were expensive toys that could not be counted on to get one where one needed to go；they could only be afforded by the wealthy class，who could afford both the expensive upkeep and the inherent delays that resulted from the use of a machine that tended to break down time and again. 5B These early automobiles required repairs so frequently both because their engineering was at an immature stage and because roads were unpaved and often in poor condition. 5C Then，when breakdowns occurred, there were no services such as roadside gas stations or tow trucks to assist drivers needing help in their predicament. 5D Drivers of horse-drawn carriages considered the horseless mode of transportation foolhardy, preferring instead to rely on their four-legged “engines”, which they considered a tremendously more dependable and cost-effective means of getting around.
Automobiles in the beginning of the twentieth century were quite unlike today’s models. Many of them were electric cars, even though the electric models had quite a limited range and needed to be recharged frequently at electric charging stations; many others were powered by steam, though it was often required that drivers of steam cars be certified steam engineers due to the dangers inherent in operating a steam-powered machine. The early automobiles also lacked much emphasis on body design; in fact, they were often little more than benches on wheels, though by the end of the first decade of the century they had progressed to
Leather-upholstered chairs or sofas on thin wheels That absorbed little of the incessant pounding associated with the movement of these machines.
In spite of the rather rough and undeveloped nature of these early horseless carriages, something about them grabbed people’s imagination，and their use increased rapidly, though not always smoothly. In the first decade of the last century, roads were shared by the horse-drawn and horseless variety of carriages，a situation that was rife with problems and required strict measures to control the incidents and accidents that resulted when two such different modes of transportation were used in close proximity. New York City，for example，banned horseless vehicles from Central Park early in the century because they had been involved in so many accidents，often causing injury or death；then，in 1 904, New York state felt that it was necessary to control automobile traffic by placing speed limits of 20 miles per hour in open areas, 15 miles per hour in villages, and 10 miles per hour in cities or areas of congestion. However, the measures taken were less a means of limiting use of the automobile and more a way of controlling the effects of an invention whose use increased dramatically in a relatively short period of time. Under, 5,000 automobiles were sold in the United States for a total cost of approximately $5 million in 1900, while considerably more cars，181,000, were sold for $215 million in 1910，and by the middle of the 1920s, automobile manufacturing had become the top industry in the United States and accounted for 6 percent of the manufacturing in the country.
