It was also a very versatile vehicle, and Islanders used it for everything from transportation to farming. The Model T remained popular on the Island well into the 1930s.
The Post-War Years
After World War II, the automotive industry underwent a period of rapid growth. This growth was reflected on Prince Edward Island, where new car dealerships opened up and Islanders began to buy more cars than ever before. The popularity of cars led to the construction of new roads and bridges, and the Island's transportation infrastructure was greatly improved.

Some of the most popular muscle cars of the era included the Pontiac GTO, the Chevrolet Camaro, and the Ford Mustang. Muscle cars were a symbol of freedom and rebellion, and they played a significant role in the development of Island car culture.
