Henry Ford was an American industrialist who revolutionized factory production with his assembly-line methods during the Roaring Twenties.
The most important consumer product of the 1920s was the automobile.
Low prices (the Ford Model T cost just $260 in 1924) and generous credit made cars affordable.
In 1929, there was one car on the road for every five Americans. Motels and gas stations were created to serve the needs of this new mobile society.
