*The description of the black visor in ''Halo'': ''Reach'' states, "You can have it in any color you want... as long as it's black." This is a reference to a quote attributed to Henry Ford, speaking about the [[wikipedia:Ford Model T|Ford Model T]] in 1909, although there is speculation as to whether he ever said it at all. | *The description of the black visor in ''Halo'': ''Reach'' states, "You can have it in any color you want... as long as it's black."
