Have You Heard These Lexus Facts?

McGrath Lexus has Some Fun and Interesting Auto Facts for You

As your Lexus dealership in Westmont IL, all of us at McGrath Lexus feel that we have a duty to be more than just a source for great new and used vehicles. Beyond our friendly Financing Department and our skilled service technicians, we think we owe it to our customers to be a source of auto knowledge, too.

While we often cover certain tidbits that will make your driving experience easier or improve the maintenance of your vehicle, sometimes the trivial things can be pretty entertaining. Read on for some of these fun details.

Auto Trivia You Probably Didn’t Know

Mcgrath Lexus of Westmont

Let’s talk about origins first; do you know where we get the term “automobile?” It originates from the French words “auto,” meaning “self” and “mobile,” which means “moving.” So an automobile is a self-moving thing, which makes sense when you consider that prior personal vehicles were often driven by animals.

Well, most prior personal vehicles, at least, considering that the very first automobile was designed in 1672 by Ferdinand Verbiest. He created a steam-powered trolley as a toy for the Chinese Emperor; while there is no direct evidence of it construction, he had access to the finest metal workers in China and the design was sound, which is why we credit him as the first automaker.

Things have changed a lot since then, though, and now our auto techs are so versed in the inner workings of vehicles that they even do speed trials on removal and repair jobs. On November 21 in 1985, the engine of a Ford Escort was removed and replaced in 42 seconds — this is the fastest recorded engine replacement. We don’t work quite that fast in our Service Department, but that’s to ensure that your vehicle gets all the attention it needs. We’re okay without the world record if it means giving you quality service.

Part of being an auto dealer is accumulating little bits of trivia like this. We’ve got plenty more that we can share with you on your next visit to McGrath Lexus of Westmont, IL, so stop in and chat with us about the storied history of the automobile.
