HITTING THE ROAD!
April 24th is a big day in automotive
history. On April 24th of 1908 Mr. and
Mrs. Jacob Murdock and their children
set out in Jacob's Packard in an attempt
to become the first family to travel across
the United States by car! Their trip began
in Los Angeles and their destination was
New York City. They made it! The trip
took a total of 32 days, 5 hours and 25
minutes! An amazing accomplishment.
But just imagine poor Jacob hearing
"Are we there yet?," for 32 days, 5 hours,
and 25 minutes!!! Hope your travles are
fun and that all your NEWS is good!
