Notes:

Fifty years ago, when Ford Motor Company was founded, the average

man would have worked 17 months to earn enough money to buy a runabout

consisting of little more than a two-cylinder engine and a buggy frame.

Today, the cost of a Ford car similar to those above is equal to the wages

an average man in 3 1/2 months.
