wow. that is just wild. Im wondering if they were way more expensive because I feel compared to the competition I would think it would take over. Yeah it was slower but I would rather ride in that than a model t.

    The Model T was famously one of the most affordable vehicles ever sold to the point it revolutionized american transportation, while the Baker electric was marketed to rich city people and women, so I expect it would be quite a bit pricier.
