Despite the public being excited at the advancement in car technology, issues such as practicality and perhaps the American economic decline meant sales began to halt. A large marketing campaign and enhancements being made to the car were just not enough to entice customers to part with their hard earned cash. This was a desperate time for the once successful car company as their profits dropped dramatically. Ford stopped selling the first convertible of its time in 1959. Despite the end of the Skyliner production, Ford continued to utilize the model’s best features in its cars of the 1960s.

But if you read the story closely, you start to realize that another character is also going through their own metamorphosis and that person is Gregor little sister, Grete. Grete metamorphosis is a little different from Gregor, mainly since he becomes into a giant insect, because she turns from a child into a very well presented adult.

Automobiles were affordable and were designed carefully. The majority of these cars were produced by the Ford Motor Company, led by Henry Ford, who designed a different model each year to satisfy the insatiable crowd. Many of the automotive innovations that we think of as being modern—like electric powered cars, four wheel drive, front wheel drive, hybrid fuel and electric cars—were introduced during the 1920s.

Although Henry Ford began the Ford Motor Company in 1903, it was not until 1908 that his business began to grow and become successful. In 1908 Ford first released the Model T automobile at a price of $825.00. He was able to offer the vehicle at such a low price because in the process of producing the Model T he also developed and perfected the moving assembly line. This reduced the assembly time by over fifty percent, which in turn reduced the price of the automobile. The Ford Motor Company has continued to grow and after over a century of being in business it is now worth around $199 billion.
But by this time Ford had a bigger vision for a better affordable vehicle. Ford began working closely with selected employees and they developed the Model T, introduced on October 1, 1908. The Model T exhibited simplicity and quality. Model T was a great success.

Some of these changes included the ability to gain information more easily than before, a changing set of societal views, and styles of art changing. Similar to the first Renaissance, it is now the case that people are able to access information quickly without any special privilege. Another example of this is how society has changed dramatically since the first Renaissance.
