A gentleman after working with a company for over 30 years is retiring and they're having a retirement party for him. At this party they give him the keys to a brand new Lincoln, he gets up to make a speech and his opening line is: "Gee, thanks for the Lincoln, but for that kind of money you could have bought a CADILLAC!"

    1948 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special

    The 1948 Cadillacs had tailfins for the first time, modeled after the Lockheed P-38 fighter plane. Harley Earl had been inspired by that plane’s design and couldn’t wait to translate the profile to his cars. Because there was so much excitement about this design innovation, dealers would often park cars in their showrooms with the backs facing the window, leaving the taillights on overnight. The tailfins from these Cadillacs set design trends for decades.
