They are the most complicated consumer product you can buy, and that complexity is absolutely fascinating, combining nearly every engineering discipline. Quite simply, I will never get bored of learning about cars, because there will always be more to learn. In this video series sponsored by Bosch Wiper Blades, we are going to tell the story of the automobile, over the past 100 years. To do this, we’ll be driving America’s Route 66, which as of this year, is 100 years old – much like Bosch’s wiper blade! As we embark on Route 66, starting in Chicago, let its 2,448 miles of roadways act as our timeline. As we make our way stop to stop, we’ll progress through 20 of the most iconic automotive innovations from the past century, beginning with the 1900s. Stay tuned and subscribe so you catch Part 2!
