I was looking for random infographics (cuz who doesn't like a good one of those on a Friday afternoon?) and I came across this one. Some interesting things that you may or may not already know. Nothing necessarily mind-blowing but entertaining nonetheless.
So "15 (or probably 7-10) Facts You Didn't (or do) Know about Cars." Feel free to drop some knowledge in the comments below.
(note, I didn't make this infographic)
(new note, I keep looking this over and find it funnier and funnier. Look at the last listed source)
Hopefully a final edit: if you're unaware, I love XKCD comics. Just checked !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and it's shockingly relevant.

fact: Ford built a concept car of what a nuclear powered car might look like, but did not have a plant. But since this is the interwebs, my 1990 VW Fox wagon also is nuclear powered. (by this reasoning)

Wasn't it Jules who asked Vincent if they were happy? Marcellus wasn't even in the room, so it makes no sense for him to be asking. Also, Vincent was the only one who ever looked in the briefcase and had the gold light shine on his face, and we see it from the front. ISSUES.

I've read that the Lexus SC was offered with a tape deck in 2011. I've got no source so take it for what it's worth.

Internal combustion engined car, perhaps. Definitely not the first engined road-going car.

Not even the first ICE car by a lot of accounts, either. It's a really foggy part of automotive history; perhaps the foggiest.

First step in creating an infographic: don't make sure that you have your facts straight.

10 things I don't know about cars but read on the internet so it must be true.
I know its not your infographic, but whoever did this should be ashamed. Its graphical, and there is information, but so much false information.

As soon as I saw this I was going to post todays xkcd . The edit made me assume there were ten of them posted already, but since there aren't I feel obligated to post it here.
