Note: Relative Information about the Speed Wagon will specifically relate to this example in the suggestion.

**Powertrain:**

- _Engine:_ 3.4 L (209 ci) Silver Crown I6\*
- _Transmission:_ 3-speed manual

**Layout:**

- Front-Engine
- RWD\*\*

**Performance:**

- Top Speed: 35 mph (56 km/h)\*\*\*

**Others:**

- _Country:_ US; United States 🇺🇸
- _Body Style + Class:_ Mid-Size Pickup\*\*\*\*
- _Production:_ ? (cannot be accurately pinpointed)

\*Most models used the company’s iconic Gold Crown I6 series  
\*\*Most likely as cars from that period were mainly RWD  
\*\*\*For later, pre-WWII models; for earlier models, it was 22 mph (35 km/h)  
\*\*\*\*Assuming it’s a mid-size truck (size is subjective, especially during the early 1900s)

**Additional Facts:**

- The Speed Wagon was also call the REO Hurry Up Wagon, but that name didn’t stick
- In 1936, the Speed Wagon (truck, not pickup) became REO’s focus of production; the Speed Wagon (pickup) is widely considered as the pioneer of the modern American pickup truck
- The Speed Wagon was first introduced in 1915; REO offered customers a variety of Speed Wagon models with many options for everyday farm work to firefighting and ambulances

This reminds me of REO Speedwagon, a rock band from the 1970s - 1980s from Illinois
