  • Jim T - Here's my last ride in the T with a few pointers and rambling thrown in. Sorry the audio is a little muffled. The camera is in a weatherproof case.

    Strange to think that anyone old enough to buy that car brand new is no longer around. Great video. I'd love to drive an old classic like that.

      John Texas And they are.The original commenter is pretty dumb if he/she really thinks that people who were old enough to buy a 1922 model T new are all dead.There's even one person still alive who was born in the 19th century.

      Now I finally got the point, what the original comment means. He said, it is pretty strange, that no one who bought this car as brand new is living by now. Let's pretend one has to be at least 18 years of age by 1922; that is now 114 years old (being born 1904). So, he may be right - very strange, indeed - nothing wrong with this idea to me.

    luckily she found a good home on Florida where she should live another 90 years rust free! This video was for the new owner, so he had a little instruction on the basic driving operations. This thing is a time machine, if you ever have the chance to ride in one, take advantage of it and make sure you wave at any antique on the road! We love it!

    How do you know how fast your going without a speedometer and how far you have on a tank of gas without a fuel gauge or an odometer I did hear those get over 20 miles per gallon but they're gravity-fed so I don't think that would work too well uphill

    • @19Robert98
      @19Robert98 Před 5 lety

      You just guess your speed. You check your gas before you leave and once in a while as your driving. They get around 20 mpg
