Before there were cars people rode horses to go places faster than they could walk.

We always want to get to the places we're going faster than we can. That's why cavemen learned to walk, because it was faster than crawling, then they probably learned to run because it was faster than walking, or because they needed to get out of the way of a stampeeding Mastadon, but I digress . . .

Then people found out that you could ride horses, and that was faster than even running, and easier too.

Cars, especially Mopars, are even faster than horses, but they don't have as much personality.
