Traveling back in 1933, how amazing was this 1933 5th Wheel Invention

Shouldn't car manufacturers bring this 1933 5th wheel invention back to help all the hopeless parallel parkers at least as optional and where possible of course, breakthrough in parking maneuver for 360 turn around, you'd wanna ask where'd all those old-time inventions go to? Some would have been very useful. and just a few years ago (up to now including horse trailer) the car companies sell the parking assistant as an innovation.

5th wheel discharge view

A patent for this 1933 5th Wheel Invention technology issued in 1938, Apparently the inventor, pitched it to Detroit automakers until his death in the 1970s. The utility just couldn't outweigh the trade-offs and expense required. Must not have been cost effective enough to put into production, That was ahead of its time, and a great item to show innovation with.

Neat invention from onegoodhead in 1933 but never made it in becoming an option on new cars then nor later. Just another invention not used. Required additional mechanics for lifting and sideways acceleration would use all space of the cargo and rear passenger space...

They should bring the fifth wheel, especially for parallel parking when naija police stops you and points sideways saying "PARK!!!" while standing directly in front of the car without space to maneuver

If the only purpose was for parallel parking, then the invention is obsolete because newer cars can do hand free parallel parking.

I understand where you are coming from. Most Nigerians don’t know the importance of parallel parking. In US you must demonstrate that you can do it before you pass the driving exam.

We don't need fifth wheel what we need to do is to adjust the front wheel to be able to rotate 90 degrees. Dazzol
