As found on web about North Dakota a residents of:

They own only three spices-salt, pepper, and ketchup- . . .

If an anniversary celebration involves eating at a truck stop . . .

If you know that going out to eat often means Swedish meatballs or roast beef in a church basement . . .

you consider rocky mountain oysters a dietary need . . .

If your favorite meat is liver or beef tongue . . .

Hmmm... No.

Ford wrote in his autobiography that he told his management team in 1909 that in the future â€œAny customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is blackâ€.

However, in the first years of production from 1908 to 1914, the Model T was not available in black but rather only grey, green, blue, and red. Green was available for the touring cars, town cars, coupes, and Landaulets. Grey was only available for the town cars, and red only for the touring cars. By 1912, all cars were being painted midnight blue with black fenders. It was only in 1914 that the "any color as long as it is black" policy was finally implemented.

Until Anon G's reply I thought the Only Black was true. I really thought the first Fords were Black. Learn something new every minute reading MC.

You do learn something new! But you also forget a lot of shit. The rewards do not outweigh the risks.
