Henry Ford and the Model T

1.The assembly line changed from being a workers moving from workplace to workplace, to a worker staying in one workplace and giving it another further on down the assembly line.
2. The reason for why workers stayed longer at the company and also why they were more committed to the company was because they were paid a fair wage by Henry Ford.
3. The first Model T costed around $1000.The Model T  was built and sold towards "the common man".
4.The Price of the Model T went down to $300 ($7000 today).Reasons for this could a faster rate of production,more Model T's becoming available on the market,gasoline becoming cheaper,and competitors to Ford in the market place.
5.When the Model T became the main source of transportation it offered people more freedom and made it easier to contact others.
