Among the first owners of a Ford Model T in the state of Minnesota was a wheat farmer from St. Paul who bought his unit in 1909: Seth Lesser. The Ford Model T, known today as the most influential car of the 20th century, was manufactured by Ford Motor Company in Detroit, Michigan. Commended as having put America on wheels, it was the first affordable automobile built on a brilliant business plan founded on affordability. Historically speaking, it was also the first vehicle that ever came to be through the assembly line mass production process.

The Ford Model T had changed Seth Lesser life. He broached the idea od buying a Model T to his father, who bequeathed to him his farming land after having heard of its wonders while listening to the radio. Against his father’s wishes, who was adamantly against it, he bought his Model T he became a believer two months into owning his unit, although it took him a while to learn how to drive the vehicle.

It cut down to days the weeks of interstate travel that Seth Lesser and his employees had to go through to market his wheat. The Model T has made hauling things from one place to another an easier task. Family trips had been a surprisingly pleasant experience on the automobile. Clara, his wife, used to be as dead set against it as his father. But she was sold as soon as Lizzie, their youngest daughter was born: she was born on the Model T

Seth Lesser and ordinary people like him had made the Ford Model T’s reputation making the modern car an important feature of modern life.
