We visited the Henry Ford museum in Dearborn, Michigan so we could take the tour of the Rouge factory complex where they manufacture Ford F150 pickup trucks. This is touted as a factory of the future and we wanted to see for ourselves. It was very impressive.
No photographs are allowed of the truck assembly line or movie presentations. All of these were well done and would have been nice to include...

| After the tour you can visit an example of the truck manufactured here as well as other examples of Ford automobiles from decades past |
 |
| Back at the Henry Ford museum you can see down this hallway to the aircraft display |

| A replica of the original Wright Flyer is suspended in the entry to the museum. This one was flown quite a bit and proved what the Wright Brothers did that it is quite a handful to fly |
 |
| Examples of vehicles that compete in the Shell fuel challenges were on display |
