When it comes to cars, some people want the fastest, the most luxurious, the one with the highest pull-in torque, or the best fuel efficiency. But, not you; you’re different. You prefer to follow things back to the original, to the foundation. You examine the first before critiquing the latest. That is how you rate progress. Many travelers flock to the Brickyard and stay at cheap hotels in Indianapolis. They want to see what life looks like at 200 miles per hour. There is certainly nothing wrong with that. You, though, take things at a slower, more refined pace. Instead of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, you opt for a different kind of automobile experience. For you, hotels in Kokomo, IN are an extension of the garage where the first gas-powered car was built in the late 19th century. You are travelling to Kokomo to find inspiration in automobile history.
Located about 50 miles north of Indianapolis, the mid-size burg is home to many other firsts in addition to Elwood Haynes’s contribution to American society.

You appreciate the origins of such trivia and visiting the source quenches your thirst for knowledge. Your Kokomo rental car will serve as your chariot on your tour around the City of Firsts.
