Well, we found something very interesting happening right now. Is it possible that Apple is getting into the car business?<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s true, there is no better company in the right position than Apple is. They have the marketing ability and the cash to do it if they wanted to. Sometimes when a company is as dependent on a single product such as Apple is on the iPhone, it\u2019s always a smart idea to look into other prospects to get into. Even Steve Jobs was talking about the possibility of an Apple <a title=\"car\" href=\"https:\/\/thriftyautoship.com\/aboutus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">car<\/a> on his deathbed so Apple has been associated with car talk for years. This means that there really is some truth to the rumors flying around.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s cool is that there have been sightings of <a title=\"self-driving\" href=\"https:\/\/thriftyautoship.com\/prepare-your-car-for-shipping\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">self-driving<\/a> minivans that are registered to Apple. What\u2019s even cooler is that all of Tesla\u2019s patents are open source and if Tesla was for sale then Apple could get a head start by purchasing it for cash. Since one of Apple\u2019s strengths is how their products look and feel; they are already ahead of the game because that\u2019s exactly what the car business is all about. They\u2019re also already used to bringing out new models, upgrades, and incremental changes all the time so that\u2019s not new either.<\/p>\n<p>This is all tempting and very possible so we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what happens next. \u00a0If this happens and this all becomes real, then wouldn\u2019t it be awesome to be able to get your very own Apple car for yourself?\u00a0You can always use our <a title=\"auto transport\" href=\"https:\/\/thriftyautoship.com\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">auto transport<\/a> service at Thrifty Auto Shipping when
