It took many months of development by Henry Ford and his engineers before the Model N was finally completed. Throughout 1905 and 1906 Ford wanted to design a four cylinder automobile that could sell for $500. By the fall of 1906 the Bellevue Ave plant was assembling 100 engines a day. Henry wanted to manufacture ten thousand Model N's a year and that put the Piquette plant in overdrive trying to produce the finished product as fast as they could. When the Model N went on sale the newspapers and Magazines gave raved reviews over the Model N. The advertising message that was used for the Model N was, "There are alot more poor people then wealthy people. We'll just build one car for the poor people." During a publicity campaign for the model N in 1906 it stated that Henry Ford idea was to build a high grade, practical automobile at a reasonable price. The public responded! Sales of the Model N in 1906-07 climbed to 8423 cars. Thats more than 5 times the company's previous record in a span of twelve months. |
