Part Two of Four - Henry Ford and the Model T

Henry Ford and the Model T

1. The assembly line changed from suggestions made by Henry Ford because instead of the workers moving down the line the line itself moved.
2. They tend to stay longer and was more committed to the company because he treated them fairly in terms of pay. He was guaranteeing a more “livable wage” than anyone else was.
3. They cost a little over $1000.00. It was made for the common man.
4. The model T price dropped to $800 dollars then dropped to about $300 dollars. I think that it dropped so much because other companies started making cars and he wanted people buying cars from him.
5. The automobile offered people to travel whenever they wanted and they didn’t have to rely on the railroads for transportation, they could do it whenever they wanted.
