In 1903, Henry Ford launched the Ford Motor Company in Detroit, Michigan. The early Ford Motor Company began by manufacturing a few cars per day at its facility on Mack Avenue in Detroit. Originally, Ford used two to three man teams to assemble each car, but eventually refined the process into assembly lines, which was one of the first such usages of that concept. Over the years, the Ford Motor Company had other firsts for the industry.

In 1908, Ford developed the first model with a removable cylinder head, the Model T. In 1930, Ford launched the Model A, which had the first safety glass in an automobile. Soon after, in 1932, Ford introduced the first V8 powered car. Ford was also the first to introduce rear seatbelts, child safety locks and the seat belt reminder light during the years leading up to the Mustang's launch.

While Ford has stumbled a bit over the years, especially during the recession in the early 21st century, the company still remains in the family's control after more than 100 years of business.

Today, Ford is a worldwide auto manufacturer with sales throughout the world, and some of the world's most popular vehicles. Ford also has one of the longest continuously produced models with the Mustang. Not only does Ford make dozens of different automobiles, but they also manufacture many of their own parts for these automobiles, making them somewhat self sufficient in many respects.
