Fun Fact!

Here's a fun fact I learned the other day; Cadillac was started by Ford!

From Wikipedia:

"For Henry Ford, the purchase of Lincoln was a personal triumph, as he had been forced out of his second company (Henry Ford Company) by a group of investors led by [Henry] Leland. The company, renamed Cadillac in 1902 was purchased by General Motors in 1909, serving as the chief competitor to Lincoln."

So the next time someone tells you Cadillac is better than Lincoln, tell them it doesn't matter: they're both Ford companies!
