Pain at the pump, 1920s style

It seems pain at the pump is nothing new; it's just of matter of degree. During the recent centennial celebrations for Ford's iconic Model T, Biz Insider was given a copy of a vintage Ford cartoon from a simpler time. It shows a pair of guys motoring past a garage where the price of gasoline has just been raised from 18 to 20 cents a gallon. "A Ford don't need gasoline, it can run on its reputation," says the caption.
