    Give Edsel Ford some credit... It took him years to win his father's support for the 1928 Model A. It was a huge step forward at the time, much more refined than any update of the Model-T could have been. Still, the latest offerings from Chevrolet and Dodge were very competitive.

      Agreed. I should have mentioned Edsel.

    Durrig WWII Henry, going senile, wanted to stop all production and retool his factories to start producing the Model "T" again, To save the company the navy released Henry 2nd to take over snd save the company. The last Volkswagen bug was a far different car from the first, as a result of continuous changes and improvements.

      Wow. I did not know that Henry did that. Honestly though I am not surprised.

    It was not a mistake. In fact is was long overdue.

      Henry Ford had a problem with pride that nearly led to the demise of his own company.
