One morning at breakfast, Milford gets a phone call from a radio game show. He answers a question from the host and wins a new super-deluxe automobile for the family. The car is delivered to the house, and everyone is admiring the car. The problem is that no one in the family knows how to drive it (Maw thinks that the antenna is a "new-fangled clothesline"). Eventually, Milford goes for a joyride around the farm, chasing most of the residents, before finally crashing into a tree, reducing the vehicle to the size of a Model T. It is now the right size for the family! The joy is short-lived, however, as the "Model T" goes into a mudhole and sinks into the horizon.
