1931-32 were banner years for free-wheeling, most everyone adopted it and just as quickly abandoned it as road accidents quickly increased. It reappeared a few years later as a feature of overdrive. Pierce-Arrow had it in 1931, Packard I believe(?) waited until 1932 and offered it alone and in combination with the automatic clutch (early forerunner of Electromatic).
