I think 8 months is a little short for the utility of a new tech to be fully realized and utilized. I'm pretty sure there were still horses on the roads long after 8 months after the Model T first went on sale.

Horse numbers peaked around 1915. Model T released 1908.

Still plenty around until at least 1930.
