- American homes before 1900 had no idea of ​​a garage, but now two-, three- or four-car garages are commonplace in the United States.

The Ford Motor Company was founded by Henry Ford in 1908, and his car, known and sold as the Model T, changed American social life and economics. Today, Ford Motor Company has sales of over ૫ 150 billion and employs more than two million people worldwide, including in the United States.

Thus cars for the masses

People laughed when Henry Ford tried to build and sell a car for a mediocre American. His critics say his company will close in six months. Henry Ford announced that he would build a car that the average person could afford to buy. When the company was founded around 150 cars were opened in Germany and their price was so high that only the rich could afford them. Henry Ford democratized the car and created the standard parts, called the Model T, and the Model T in black only, reducing the price from ૯૫ 50 to 50. The design of the car was quite simple. It will be a family car and the whole family will be able to enjoy it, Ford announced.

When the company was founded in 1908, the average income of a citizen of the United Kingdom was 500 and that of a citizen of the United Kingdom was 500. Britain was the richest country at that time, not America. In 1904 and before, most American homes had no electricity. Very few American children were able to get an education up to secondary school. The average life expectancy of Americans was 5 years. America's roads were rough. Most people worked close to home. Only SuperRich America had a car. The situation was similar in India 150 years ago. The car was invented in Germany in the 180's. But America took full advantage of it.

Is. Henry Ford, born 19, was innovative from the start. Her father worked on a farm near Dearborn in Michigan. Henry Ford was obsessed with building horseless carts. They did not take schooling. At that time, he did a vertical integration that no one could have imagined. He bought steel mills, coal mines, glass factories, rubber plantations, certain railway routes, forests for timber, etc.

Now in modern terminology this is considered as part of supply chain management. Ford's model T. Carrey changed America. Is. Even in the 1900s, there were scattered car manufacturing companies in the United States, and at that time there were a total of 5,000 cars in the United States. After the founding of the Ford Motor Company in 1903, the number of cars in the United States increased to four hundred and fifty-eight thousand in 1910 due to Ford's invention of manufacturing on the assembly line.

In 1905, the number of cars in the United States reached 20 million, and in the 18th century, the number of cars reached over 23 million. In just one year of 19, 4 million new cars were sold in the United States, of which 3 million belonged to the Ford Company. The assembly line manufacturing method invented by Ford was adopted by many American and European companies. Henry Ford established a management culture of mass production and mass marketing in the United States which later made it possible to produce millions of readymade garments cheaply used in the field of textiles. In 2013, there were 213 motor vehicles (cars, trucks, station wagons, etc.) per thousand population in the United States. In the United States, there are currently 30 million cars and trucks on the road, out of a population of about 30 million. The car industry in the world has raised crude oil based billionaires in America, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran.

Social life

America's car industry turned the country's social life upside down. The dense population of the city began to dwell in the far suburbs. The affluent and middle class Americans became suburban, not urban. Many women also took their cars and started working. The United States gladly accepted Ford's offer of five working days and a Saturday-Sunday holiday, instead of six working days a week. Due to the car, the dating practice of men and women in America fully developed but at the same time the crime rate increased. The criminals quickly committed the crime and fled in a car.

The American car industry pushed the American railway system to the margins. Before 1800, American homes had no idea of ​​garages, but now two-, three- or four-car garages are commonplace in the United States. The car industry is an example of how an important industry can change the whole country and the world. Computers and the entire IT sector are now working in the 21st century.
