"The Ford Model A is generally credited for the first automobile to use the now standard set of driver controls, such as throttle pedals, brake pedals and gear shifter, previous models used controls that would seem alien to a modern driver." Surely not. Maybe the first Ford to be so equipped. Malcolma 17:44, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
- Top Gear actually did some research into this, the first car to be so equipped was released in 1912, i think it was an Oldsmobile or a Packard, but I don't remember. The first mass produced car to use such controls was apparently the Austin Seven 82.153.230.138 (talk) 22:11, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
The above was copied from Ford Model A which is now a disambiguation page. Malcolma 11:17, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Good Day,
I'm hoping to expand the technical data about this vehicle in the near future. Any one have any suggestions for format or style?
