PoD is 1955.
This year, Rosa Parks, a seamstress was refused seating in a bus in Montgomery, AL, and a young man named Martin Luther King, Jr., introduces himself to the world, by leading a boycott of Montgomery buses. And the Korean War ended in a stalemate, but a small company called Toyota had made there presence known to the world with defense contracts for the US Army. And the General Motors Company decided to partner with this small company from Japan, buying 25% and announcing that new "Toyopet" models would be sold alongside Oldsmobiles at Oldsmobile dealerships. This would change the way America drives forever.
