Think if you and I had a car like this what we could do. Do you know there’s a road that goes down Mexico and all the way to Panama?

Yes! You and I, Sal, we’d dig the whole world with a car like this because, man, the road must eventually lead to the whole world. Ain’t nowhere else it can go - right?

— Dean in Jack Kerouac's, On the Road, 1957, Viking Press
