He had not been in a hole yet that the T couldn’t get him out of.

Re: Remember that story about the man who wanted to be buried in his Model T?
Ok....not coffin humor but a few from the archives:
Back in the twenties a lunatic escaped from the asylum and stole the first car he found - a Ford touring car. His first stop was the laundry nearby, where he somehow persuaded two employees to take a break and go for a high speed ride. Unfortunately, the Ford, the lunatic, and the laundrymen reached the grade crossing at the same time as the train.
When the police arrived, all they found was a nut and two washers.
----------------
Why is a Ford Model T like a bathtub? You know you need one, but really don't want to be seen in it"
----------------
Can you tell the difference between a Rattlesnake and a Ford Model T? Most would answer "no."
The answer is "you can count the rattles on a rattlesnake but not a Ford Model T."
----------------
A fellow was boasting at the local garage that he could tell the make of car by just the sound it made.
Bets were placed all around among the denizens of this establishment and the braggart was blindfolded and various cars were driven into the garage for him to hear.
First car was an Overland which he called correctly.
"Cadillac" he called out as the next vehicle was driven in.
"Willys Knight" he announced on the third car impressing everyone with his ability.
Just then the coal truck outside shot a load of coal down the chute.
"FORD" he announced triumphantly.
---------------
Why did the salesman call his Model T "Baby"?
Because it wouldn't go anywhere without it's rattle....
