I don't understand how they could build a Model T in 27 seconds? This doesn't make sense, it would take longer than 27 seconds to push the car to the next station two or three times. I'm picturing Nascar pit crews changing tires while the mechanics installed the engines and the steering wheels. I still can't imagine how the guys could work around each other and still finish building a car in 27 seconds. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.10.182.133 (talkcontribs) 20 December 2007 (UTC)

That is not what the article says. It means that all of the Ford auto plants across the world make about 133 cars an hour, which works out at 1 every 27 seconds. It doesn't mean 1 car only takes 27 seconds to be made. -- Barliner  talk  19:21, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
