I don't remember which movie it was right now but in one of the Buster Keaton movies there is a guy with his arm in a cast. Another guy asks him what happened and he responds "I BOUGHT A FORD!" and looks pissed.

What was that about? Were Fords known for breaking arms more than other cars in the early 20s?

Sorry I don't remember the name of the movie, I bought the Buster Keaton box set a while back and just kept watching the movies.

I might have asked this years ago and forgot, I apologize if this is the case.
