Any given change to a car might by itself fail to seem radical - I agree, yet in the decades since 1909, how cars (and trucks) are used in our world has changed radically, and radically changed our world. Paved roads and freeways, gasoline production, the repair industry, and taking for granted that a person of ordinary means (in first world countries) has the ability to travel dozens of miles to work daily. Foodstuffs can get transported hundreds or thousands of miles and be edible. My parents didn't eat a green leafy vegetable from October to May as children, because such veggies didn't grow locally in Winnipeg.
