CAR'S YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL: 1909 Maxwell Model DA

"I LOVE MY CAR BECAUSE ... it takes great skill to drive, makes people smile and wave, and keeps me going about 30 mph in the open air. It's a wonderful ride. I drove this car from New York to San Francisco this summer, reenacting the 1909 Alice Ramsey drive as the first woman to drive a car across the USA."
