Agreed. As a sentence at the end of a short paragraph and not one that summarizes additional content and given it has no source I've removed it. Springee (talk) 01:53, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
It means that Henry Ford's general attitude towards the war was "Okay, I'm all good with killing Asians and other assorted Untermensch. But can we at least keep Auschwitz running and just change it to good, wholesome American SS officers?" ~ Henry Ford, The Dearborn Independent, Nineteen forty hate. 206.163.228.134 (talk) 04:47, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

I expected to find a mention of Henry Ford's net worth in this article (both nominal and inflation adjusted). By most estimates, Ford is one of the wealthiest men in history, so it seems an odd fact to omit. Modern wealthy individuals almost invariably have their net worths listed prominently in their info boxes. Why would Henry Ford be any different? Is he from too far back in history? Just a suggestion for anyone able to edit the article. Thank you. 66.91.36.8 (talk) 07:06, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
Most sites agree that he owned around 200 billion(checked 7)(At his peak)
His wealth consisted of sole ownership of Ford. How much was Ford stock worth?? There was no market--no one could buy or sell a single share because Ford had all the shares, so it's very hard to estimate the value. Rjensen (talk) 03:17, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
" In 1902, Murphy brought in Henry M. Leland as a consultant; Ford, in response, left the company bearing his name. With Ford gone, Leland renamed the company the Cadillac Automobile Company."
