Native Michigander. Ford may have not been the first, but he is famous for using the production line to speed up the process. That is his claim to fame. Detroit on up to Flint so ravaged by the decline of the American auto industry there. So sad, especially to those that remember how nice it used to be.

Tanya, I'm from Flint. It's so sad to see Flint, empty, beautiful houses boarded up. Being burned down. I feel so sad and mad. It was a great city to be proud of, now I want to cry. it's my hometown and. proud to say those words.

I'm from Lansing where R. E. Olds created the Oldsmobile and he had a fully functioning internal combustion vehicle before Henry Ford. Ford may have invented the assembly line but actually Olds should have credit for inventing the automobile. Note: Ford also invented charcoal to dispose of the leftover wood from his factory.

Ford is the "Manufacturer of the year" in NASCAR this year (2018), Joey Lagonno became the NASCAR champ driving a Ford Fusion Nov. 18th. 2018 and my first car was a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 302. I wanted the Boss 429 but the dealership couldn't get one.

Gary, Ford was innovative in using the assembly line to make his cars. the assembly line was widely used in the food industry already. it is a common misunderstanding because ford did not invent the assembly line.

Whomever "invented" the automobile is a subject that has been & will be debated ad nauseum. The answer is a number of different folks worked on & came up with the final product almost simultaneously. They were folks who stole each others ideas & the end result was a car. Pity in my opinion. We'd be much better off holding the reins behind a horse & wagon.
