Goodyear’s iconic winged foot logo is considered among the nation’s oldest and most recognized, according to a recent article on The Huffington Post.

“Few things are more tied to a company’s identity than its logo. Who isn’t familiar with Nike’s swoosh or McDonald’s golden arches? A good logo helps consumers recognize brands instantly and distinguishes brands from the competition,” the item read. “For these reasons some corporate logos have remained – at their core – almost the same for more than a century.”

The list includes logos that have not fundamentally changed over their lifespan, including John Deere’s, considered the oldest with a 1876 birth date. The article required that the logo be at least a century old and that the company still exist. Goodyear’s winged foot first appeared shortly after the tiremaker was founded in 1898.

Also on the list are railroad Union Pacific, Coca-Cola, DuPont, Prudential, Sherwin-Williams, General Electric and Johnson & Johnson.

Mercedes-Benz uses two different adjustable suspension systems in its vehicles – Airmatic and Active Body Control (ABC). Airmatic, as the name implies, is its air suspension system which we discussed back in April of this year. ABC uses hydraulic fluid at tremendous pressures to actively change the stiffness of the springs inside the shock assemblies, changing vehicle dynamics and ride height. This can be done automatically based on sensor inputs and module programming, or at the push of a button located near the shifter.
