Henry Ford had a problem. Many people would think it was a good problem, but it was still a problem.
What was his problem? Henry Ford was selling too many cars.
Henry had made the first Model T in 1909. He made sure that it was cheap. He wanted anyone to be able to buy a car.
He got a lot of people to sell it. He also had the newspapers write about it.
Henry also sold the car in different ways. There was a regular Model T that people could ride in. But that was not all.
There was also a Model T pickup. There was one with a flatbed on the back. A flatbed is like the bottom part of a pickup truck. It has the flat bottom part, but not the sides.
Henry also put ads in papers. On of the ads showed a plow hooked to a Model T.
In Henry's mind, this car could do a lot of things. He thought it would work for lots of people.
Lots of people thought so too. They were buying the cars.
