Henry Ford’s Famous Car
My name is Henry Ford, and I invented a car called the Model T. I used to
watch carriages on the streets. They fascinated me. Then I got a job as a junior
mechanic. My father criticized me. He wanted me to run the farm. But I did not
shift my plans.
Then I worked for the Detroit Auto Company. But I wanted to make cars using
less labor. That way, there would be fewer expenses. I started the Ford Motor
Company in 1903. At first, the company did not do well. But many people were
betting on my success. I also had a sincere aim to make a car that anybody
could buy.
Then, in 1908,1
introduced the Model-T in a formal ceremony. It confirmed
that I was right: it was possible to build a car my way!
The Model T differed from other vehicles. Workers could attach different parts
for cars or trucks. This saved time. One Model T could be put together in 93
minutes. All of them had the same classic design. They were all the same size
and height. The prime reason for doing this was to save money.
Over 19 years, I sold over 15 million
Model Ts. This sent a signal
to other companies.
People would buy cars
to commute to work
if the price was low
enough.
