1. I did find it surprising that people between the ages of 21-38 did not care about smart phone connectivity in their automobiles because as a younger generation I thought they would want i phone connectivity. My generation would not feel the same about the option, they would feel that it is a beneficial option because of hands free calling, Bluetooth, etc.
2. I think the dangers of texting and driving will be the same because when you get distracted in your phone you will miss the warning of the blind spot detector and will still have the same risk of being in a accident.
3. The technologies on new cars are semi important o my family because it does offer stuff that will help you drive.
4. One technological feature I would look for in a car is a back up camera because i'm not that good at backing up.
5. One new feature was the self parking car. In the past we had the self parking car which some people found unnecessary or useless.

Technologies in Development
1. We think the flying car is way less likely to happen because it was just an idea and way made using a 3D printer.
2. The self driving car is likely to have the biggest impact on society because it could prevent accidents from happening and could save many lives. It could also prevent people from getting lost.
3. The self driving car is already somewhat a part of our everyday lives because we already have self parking cars
4. The Ford's ''Driver workload Estimator'' could keep drivers and passengers safe because it reduces stress of the driver making the driver more focused on the road.
5. My thoughts on the flying cars, its a good idea but I think there are possible dangers like crashing.
6.I think the self driving cars have its pros and cons. some pros are less accidents and less human error. some cons are that it could screw up and crash and it will strip people the knowledge of driving.

Ford model T
1. The Model-T Ford took one tenth the time it took to make any other automobile of it's time
2. The Model T was introduced in 1909, and costed 9 50$
3. He payed the workers 5$, which was a lot more than what other jobs would pay around that time. He reduced their hours from 9 to 8 hours, which allowed him to have 3 shifts going at once so he could make cars around the clock.
4. The Model T's were 20 horsepower.
5. 3 body styles were the touring car, roadster, and roadster pickup.
6. Almost 15 and a half million Model T's were built.
7. You started the Model-T by a hand crank and it was fairly easy to start.
8. It was made to handle a bunch of different roads because cities were just starting up so the roads were often terrible so they had to be made to handle good roads, bad roads, and no roads.

Carl Benz
1) The automobile has been around since the late 20th century.
2) A Patent is a government authority or license conferring a right or title for a set period, especially the sole right to exclude others from making, using, or selling an invention.
3) When he received the patent in 1886 he used the title of the gas engine for his design.
4) His wife Verda drives the automobile and thus the first petro station is born.
5) The axle pivot system allowed him to steer both front wheels simultaneously rather than just one.
6) The name of the two brands are Mercedes Benz.
7) He experienced success.

Monster Mash
1) I picked a sip because I thought it wold be a good action scene when I added a monster.
2) I picked a Kraken because I heard a lot stories of Krakens attacking ships.
3) The easiest part of the assignment was getting the pictures. The hardest part was making the monster look good.
