The History of Ford
The Ford Motor Company was founded by Henry Ford in 1903. Ford introduced methods for large-scale manufacturing of cars, and large-scale management of an industrial workforce, especially elaborately engineered manufacturing sequences typified by the moving assembly lines. Ford was launched from a converted wagon factory in 1903, with $28,000 cash from twelve investors. During its early years, the company produced just a few cars a day at its factory on Mack Avenue in Detroit. Groups of two or three men worked on each car from components made to order by other companies.
In the 1950s, Ford introduced the iconic Thunderbird in 1955 and the Edsel brand automobile line in 1958; Edsel is cancelled after less than 27 months in the marketplace in November 1960. The corporation bounced back from the failure of the Edsel by introducing its compact Ford Falcon in 1960 and the Mustang in 1964.
Lee Iacocca was involved with the design of several successful Ford automobiles, most notably the Ford Mustang; he was also the "moving force," as one court put it, behind the notorious Ford Pinto. He promoted other ideas that did not reach the marketplace as Ford products. Eventually, he became the president of the Ford Motor Company. However, he clashed with Henry Ford II and ultimately, in 1978, he was famously fired by Henry II, despite Ford posting a $2 billion dollar profit for the year.
In 2000, under the leadership of the current Ford chairman, William Clay (Bill) Ford, the Company stunned the industry (and pleased environmentalists) with an announcement of a planned 25 percent improvement in the average mileage of its light truck fleet, including its popular SUV’s to be completed by the 2005 calendar year. Ford did achieve significant progress toward improving fuel efficiency during 2005, with the successful introduction of the Hybrid Escape. The Escape’s platform mate Mercury Mariner is also available with the hybrid-electric system in the 2006 model year, a full year ahead of schedule, due to high demand. The similar Mazda Tribute will also receive a hybrid-electric powertrain option, along with many other vehicles in the Ford vehicle line. Ford’s goal is to make 250,000 hybrids a year by 2010. Other Ford hybrids that will be coming out are the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan.
