THE FORD
"I will build," said Henry Ford, "a car for the multitudes."
The Ford Motor Company has stood alone a striking individu
ality in the great industry which it leads in financial strength and
volume of output in that it has confined all efforts to the making of
one car. While other companies have been continually changing
models, discarding the car they declared perfect one year to intro
duce a car of still more boasted merit the next year. These changes
have become a veritable habit of the automobile industry, with the
sole exception of the Ford Motor Company, which has concentrated
all efforts of brain, and money and labor, to the making of one chassis
one car, making that car so thoroughly right, so reliably perfect,
that changes have not been necessary. Little refinements, of course,
present themselves from time to time, but your Ford of yesterday is
your Ford of today, and will be your Ford of tomorrow.
Buyers will share in profits if we sell at retail 300,000 new Ford
cars between August 1914 and AugURt 1915.
Runabout, $490; Touring Car, $540; Sedan, $1025, in Alliance.
