Volvo had a truck named Titan from 1953. It
was the first turbocharged Diesel truck made
by them anyway. On the subject of condoms,
my dad told me that people in the early 1950's
re-used them after cleaning due to shortage
of supply. One day he visited a neighbour where
they had some of them hanging to dry over the
kitchen sink.This to everybodys amusement...
They were called Durex here.
