    1. Click the link, https://texashistory.unt.edu/search/?start=312&t5=dc_subject&q5=%22vehicles%22&searchType=advanced then tell me what the library says about these images. Every single one, says 1956. So, let me know what your blog is, include a link, and lets see if you're as incredibly sharp on the work you do for free, to share with other, in your spare time, as you are when viewing what I do.
      Or, quit being a critic.
      After all, designers are 2 or 3 years out when coming up with new cars, as you oughta know, since you're a know it all, and prototypes and concept cars are on the road with lots of time before production cars are sold to the public, and I don't look at everything with such an expert eye as you to see what the deal is, as I've got better things to do, more things to post, so mooks like you can double check the nits you're out to pick for shits and grins.
      Now run along and find some traffic to play in

  2. There must be some mistake. The Edsel was not introduced until September 1957 so this could not be the 1956 Economy run. The other cars seem to be later models as well, since they have dual headlights. Could it be 1958 instead?

  3. Library must be wrong... https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/mobilgas-economy-run-1958-edsel-crosses-the-finish-line-as-news-photo/150191115?fbclid=IwAR0-sl3XNNxEJDb1i9uoE2Ke9N6i96psqhUOZLqGtzQtsgADNM4o3aIJnAs

    1. No shit? Huh, I was picking up on the clues. Thanks Einstein, I needed your help to figure that one out. Can you help me with something? Why is water wet?

  4. Actually water is not wet... Being a liquid, water is not itself wet, but can make other solid materials wet.

    Wetness is the ability of a liquid to adhere to the surface of a solid, so when we say that something is wet, we mean that the liquid is sticking to the surface of a material.

    1. I bet that you'd have a stupid answer. Water is only 3 things, hydrogen, oxygen, and wet. It has no smell, it has no taste. It has no color, it has no visible characteristics, and it has no shape.
      You aren't educated enough to know that Mercury is also a liquid, and does not make anything wet, because it's also a metal.
      Glass is a liquid. It simply can not make anything wet.
      But you think that water is not wet. Uh huh. Moron

    2. And water is itself wet for another reason you retard. Put some salt in the water, or sugar. Tell me, did it make the salt or sugar wet? Can you now remove the "wet" salt or sugar? NO. Because WATER IS WET you mook.

    3. Since you rely only on internet links for your information, I will provide the one that stated that water is not wet. You can take it up with the scientists at UC Santa Barbara... http://scienceline.ucsb.edu/getkey.php?key=6097

      Your vocabulary of insulting names is quite prodigious, I may add.

    4. read on McDuff, UCSB answer 2, paragraph 2 and 3. Now get the fuck outta here with your bullshit until you can read the whole answer, dumbass

    5. In any case you might want to change your headline, it makes you look like a freakin' idiot. Have a nice day. :)

    6. And obsessing about this for a week makes you look like what? A freakin' idiot. Get a life, move on. No one gives a fuck what I'm doing, or what I look like, and you seriously have no fucking clue about me. I don't give a shit what you think I look like, I've got the respect of people that matter, and the people that matter, don't give a shit what I title this or any other post headline.

  5. I thought it was just spelling errors we weren't allowed to point out. My mistake. Do you really want to insist that they ran 1958 cars in the Mobilgas economy run in 1956, though?

    1. Did you check the link? What does that source say?

    2. Why, oh esteemable sir, would you WANT to point out spelling errors? Are you my spelling teacher? No. Are you my parent? No. Are you the Noah Webster who wrote the wonderful Dictionary of the American People? No.
      So, what the fuck could cause you to want to spend your life, as any moment in your life is essentially, the moments you are alive and while alive, you have a life. Therefore, you're wanting to waste your life telling me I do not spell everything correctly.
      Hey, psst. I got a secret, and I'll tell you what it is.
      I do not spell everything correctly.
      There.
      Now, you know, that I know, that things are not ALL spelled correctly on my blog.
      Now, does point out a spelling error really seem to you to be worth the time in your life, that wasting it on spelling error notes to me, better than anything you might do for yourself in that time instead?
      Washing your hands or using a q tip to clean the dirt and wax in your ears is a better use of your life than telling me what we both already know. Spelling will eventually result in an error of spelling. It's diabolical that way

    3. And where did I state that I was insisting they were running a 1958 car in the 1956 Mobilgas Economy Run? No where. So, instead of wasting your time on that, just move along, annoy someone else, OR get a fucking life and do something useful for someone, even yourself, with the time you'll instead waste trying to tell me that you give a shit what year they ran the 1958 Mobil Gas Economy Run, or that you give a shit what cars were in it.
      We both know that you don't.
      No, you just would rather be annoying, and irritating, instead of useful to anyone on this planet.
      So, do us all a good deed. Hold your breath, and let the rest of us use it instead.
      We aren't going to waste it powering our bodies, just to annoy you

  6. "Did you check the link? What does that source say?"
    The source made a mistake. To err is human. I did not insult or harm you by pointing out the error. The normal, decent thing to do would be to thank me. Not your style, I know.
