    Around the Corner (1937) How Differential Steering Works

    Found this while looking at some other cool old tech. It's educational, entertaining, and very vintage.

  7. Very good video. Explains everything in a simple progression manner, very thorough. I wonder why they stopped doing stuff like this.

    It seems like back then people wanted to know how it worked, and were impressed by features like a flat floor and lower ride height. Now they're looking for heated seats, cup holders, and how many TVs they can squeeze in to the interior.
