I can add this, but should this section be alphabetized? Fotoguzzi (talk) 07:56, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Is this covered by List of Ford factories? Might be good as a reference there.  Stepho  talk  09:28, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Having a problem understanding your question. This link mentions four or five early remote assembly buildings, the one in Portland still stands.Fotoguzzi (talk) 14:37, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
It seems that your reference is more to do with Ford factories rather than the Model T. So it might be better to use it at List of Ford factories, which also includes defunct factories.  Stepho  talk  21:37, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Early advertisements

[edit]

While the car was not released until the fall of 1908, it was being advertised at least as early as January 1908, as this advertisement shows (the T is in the center of the ad, identified in the caption.) Might it be worthwhile to include some mention of that? -- Nat Gertler (talk) 23:00, 20 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Sounds reasonable to me to put that pre-marketing into the Ford Model T#Advertising and marketing section. Take care to not mention seasons because that confuses the crap out of us Southern Hemisphere readers, as per WP:SEASON.  Stepho  talk  23:31, 20 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
I've gone ahead and added a line, sourcing it to two Jan 1908 ads. Utterly unseasoned. Usually, I'd recommend that you move to the US so that all the seasons align with those on popular TV shows, but I'm not recommending anyone move her at this particular moment. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 23:46, 20 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I moved it to the advertising section. All good!
I've tried living in the north half but I do like Christmas around the swimming pool. :)  Stepho  talk  02:37, 21 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
