Have only 'just' started listening to this story, but after checking the comment here, I thought I'd add this information Facts: Karl Benz of Germany built the 1st car (1885) and got it patented in 1886. In 1889 his cars were in production, being sold to the public. So, even if this story is supposedly taking place in the U.S.A., if the man has money & means, the car can have been imported I would think!?!

Great story but not correct facts. Elliott Roosevelt died in 1896 before cars were invented
