"Cars became less expensive to buy, so people became much more mobile."

Explanation: Interchangeable parts made mass production and assembly-line production (e.g., Ford's Model T) practical and efficient, drastically lowering manufacturing costs. That drove down the price of automobiles, expanded car ownership, and transformed daily life—greater personal mobility, suburban growth, tourism, and changes in work and shopping patterns.
