My visit to Birdsong Automotive was a very pleasant Experience. They took care of my automotive needs as promptly and efficiently as possible. I highly recommend them to anyone for an oil change, state inspections, tire rotation, etc.

Who created the world’s first car is actually a matter of debate; since the invention of the engine, people had been installing them on horse carriages to make them self-propelled. Even when automobiles specifically designed for engines came around, they were hardly recognizable as a car by today’s standards. However, the first patented automobile, a vehicle specifically designed to be propelled by an engine, was built by Karl Benz and completed in 1885.
