They Had This in 1955? 8 Forgotten Luxury Features
Pull up a stool. Pop's been working on these since before you were born. In 1955, if you were sitting in the right Cadillac, you had a headlight dimmer that worked by itself, a self-leveling suspension that the Germans wouldn't catch up to until the 1980s, and a seven-inch record player built into your dashboard playing Sinatra on the way to dinner. Tonight Pop walks you through eight luxury features that were sitting in the 1955 showroom — features most folks today assume were invented in the 1990s. Every one of them has a price tag in 1955 dollars, a translation into modern money, and the specific reason it disappeared. 🏁 Subscribe and pull up a stool.
