Of the 350,000 trucks used by the motorized German Army as of 1942, roughly one-third were Ford-made.

Ferdinand Porshe made two trips across the Atlantic to view the American auto manufacturer's assembly plants prior to WWII, including Ford Motor Co. The krauts knew a good truck when they saw one! ;)
