    Ford didn't even claim that he invented the automobile. However, he did make the manufacturing process a lot faster, and therefore cheaper, so he was the first to sell them at a price that most people could afford.

    He was also a turbo-racist who Hitler saw as an inspiration, but that's a different subject.
