This I feel is where Ford had lost sight of its original vision which was to create cars for the masses, Henry Ford made his money making cars that were cheap and reliable for the day not trying to make Cadillac's.
I want to add that Henry Ford would not have been noticed if not for his decision to race his car "Sweepstakes" against other popular vehicles of his day, and win!
