After the Model T there was still variety in style and design building on the basic formula... up until the present day when everybody seems to have settled on the same basic bean-shaped blob, specialty vehicles such as sports cars and pickups excepted. Bigger or smaller beans account for body variations from subcompact to crossover, and the name Cadillac, which once conjured images of limo-like luxury, today means a fancier bean.

- njarboe 4y agoCheck out the Cadillac Escalade. That is the Cadillac that is still used for limos and the high end models sure shoot for limo-like luxury. I have not been in one inside, so I don't know how well they hit that mark though. Not a bean shaped blob.
