以前,如果你想旅行,就得计划坐长途汽车或火车。但是汽车改变了一切。尽管一开始人们觉得汽车价格太高,但是很快汽车成了美国人生活中必不可少的一部分。在1908年到l926年间,福特汽车公司销售了超过1.500万辆汽车。几乎从一开始,人们就喜欢开车去度假。随着公路上汽车数量的增多。美国修建了更多更好的公路来维持交通情况。作为参观一个国家的简便方式,开车旅行促进了路边餐馆的发展。人们也需要获得关于旅游景点和路线的信息,所以公路路线图和旅行指南应运而生。拥有一辆汽车就意味着家人可以去离家很远的地方旅行。如果你住在温暖的地区,你可以去山区欣赏雪景;如果你住在寒冷的地区,你可以开车去海边晒太阳。汽车使得人们以前做起来困难的事情变得可能。
