Good point. OTOH 7.2M views in 2 weeks.

The Doble was far more advanced compared with Stanley's Steamer.

In 1914, Doble drove a car he had constructed to Detroit, where he obtained the financial backing to produce a steam-powered car called the Doble Detroit. This was the first Doble vehicle to use a forced draft burner that allowed the operator to get up a head of steam in seconds. It also used a Doble-designed two-cylinder, double-acting engine.
