MODEL T

Henry Ford did not invent the automobile.  He did however make it affordable to the average American.  He did this by creating the Model T and by perfecting the assembly line concept.  The Model T made it's debut in 1908 with a purchase price of $825.  Over 10,000 were sold in it's first year.  Four years later the price dropped to $575.  By 1914 Ford could claim 48% of the automobile market.
