Henry Ford published this purpose statement in 1907:
“I will build a motor car for the great multitude. It will be big enough for the family, but small enough for the individual to run and care for. It will be constructed of the best materials, by the ideal men to be hired, after the simplest designs that modern engineering can devise. But it will be so low in price that no man making a good salary will be unable to own one-and enjoy with his family the blessing hof hours of pleasure in God’s great open spaces.”
Now, according to the Detroit Free Press, Ford is suing the IRS (yes, really!) because they say they overpaid taxes. I think Ford is trying to find money because they’re sinking. Sad, really.
