I am suprised and dissapointed that you do not offer the public to vote to display the museum's 1902 Locomobile. Representative of a popular and practical steam driven vehicle

The EV1 belongs on the road, not in a museum.

1964 Mustang anyone?

My guess is that the votes are as much a result of the photography difference as anything else.

What is a Balzer? Are the Smithsonians telling us it is the first Gasoline powered Vehicle in America, or are they saying it is the first Gasoline powered car in New York? I doubt it is Gasoline powered anyway, more like naptha powered. Yet still New York or New York the state or the city?
