Enjoy the day folks... and your family (if that's possible 😏 🙄) Here's a bit of automotive trivia I did NOT know 12 hours ago (...just how that's possible, I'll never know! ) If you have leather seats in your modern car, chances are they come with heaters to help you through those cold winter months. This is the obligatory standard of the industry, but in 1966, it was a revolution. Cadillac was the first company to offer heated seats as an option for their top of the line, 1966 model year 75 Series limousine. The credit goes to Robert L. Ballard, a General Motors employee who filed an automobile seat heater patent on April 30, 1951.
