Eigenschaften guter Autos
• Quality in material to give service in use. Vanadium steel is the
strongest, toughest, and most lasting of steels. It forms the
foundation and super-structure of the cars. It is the highest quality
steel in this respect in the world, regardless of price.
• Simplicity in operation--because the masses are not mechanics.
• Power in sufficient quantity.
• Absolute reliability--because of the varied uses to which the cars
would be put and the variety of roads over which they would
travel.
• Lightness. With the Ford there are only 7.95 pounds to be carried
by each cubic inch of piston displacement. This is one of the
reasons why Ford cars are "always going," wherever and
whenever you see them--through sand and mud, through slush,
snow, and water, up hills, across fields and roadless plains.

• Control--to hold its speed always in hand, calmly and safely meeting
every emergency and contingency either in the crowded streets of the
city or on dangerous roads. The planetary transmission of the Ford
gave this control and anybody could work it. That is the "why" of the
saying: "Anybody can drive a Ford." It can turn around almost
anywhere.
• The more a motor car weighs, naturally the more fuel and lubricants
are used in the driving; the lighter the weight, the lighter the expense
of operation. The light weight of the Ford car in its early years was
used as an argument against it. Now that is all changed.

As a matter of fact, probably nothing
so well advertised the Ford car and
the Ford Motor Company as did this
suit. It appeared that we were the
under dog and we had the public's
sympathy.

Among the requirements for an agent we laid down the
following:
• A progressive, up-to-date man keenly alive to the
possibilities of business.
• A suitable place of business clean and dignified in
appearance.
• A stock of parts sufficient to make prompt replacements
and keep in active service every Ford car in his territory.
• An adequately equipped repair shop which has in it the
right machinery for every necessary repair and adjustment.
• Mechanics who are thoroughly familiar with the
construction and operation of Ford cars.

• A comprehensive bookkeeping system and a follow-up
sales system, so that it may be instantly apparent what is
the financial status of the various departments of his
business, the condition and size of his stock, the present
owners of cars, and the future prospects.
• Absolute cleanliness throughout every department. There
must be no unwashed windows, dusty furniture, dirty floors.
• A suitable display sign.
• The adoption of policies which will ensure absolutely
square dealing and the highest character of business
ethics.

Some of the stockholders were seriously
alarmed when our production reached one
hundred cars a day. They wanted to do
something to stop me from ruining the
company, and when I replied to the effect
that one hundred cars a day was only a
trifle and that I hoped before long to make
a thousand a day, they were inexpressibly
shocked and I understand seriously
contemplated court action.

The principles of assembly are these:
• Place the tools and the men in the sequence of the
operation so that each component part shall travel the least
possible distance while in the process of finishing.
• Use work slides or some other form of carrier so that when
a workman completes his operation, he drops the part
always in the same place--which place must always be the
most convenient place to his hand--and if possible have
gravity carry the part to the next workman for his operation.
• Use sliding assembling lines by which the parts to be
assembled are delivered at convenient distances.

• Along about April 1, 1913, we first tried the experiment of an
assembly line.
• We tried it on assembling the flywheel magneto.
• We try everything in a little way first--we will rip out anything once we
discover a better way, but we have to know absolutely that the new
way is going to be better than the old before we do anything drastic.
• I believe that this was the first moving line ever installed.
• The idea came in a general way from the overhead trolley that the
Chicago packers use in dressing beef.
