The correct answer is True.

Fulton's Folly, the Model T, and the Tom Thumb improved the distribution of goods, it’s true.

In 1802, Robert Fulton produced the first commercially successful steamboat. With the help of Robert Livingstone -the U.S. minister to France- they built the steamboat. The commercial success of the ship allowed the development of America's distribution system, specifically in Ohio and the Mississippi River.  

The Ford Motor Company built the Model T car from 1908 until 1927It was the Henry Ford’s invention. He thought this automobile should be practical, affordable and offers good transportation for people at a low cost and durability.
