In 1903, with $28,000 in cash, Henry Ford started Ford Motor Company, which is now one of the world's largest companies. Ford's greatest contribution to automobile manufacturing was the moving assembly that allowed individual workers to stay in one place and perform the same task on each vehicle as it passed by. The moving assembly line allowed Ford to cut costs and reduce prices of new automobiles so that average working families could afford them. Today, the Ford Motor Company sells a variety of vehicles under the Ford and Lincoln brands.
