When I was about five, a friend of ours took us in her car one day through a "ford", where cars drove through the water. After driving through it ourselves we sat in an adjacent field and watched all the cars driving through the ford, which really fascinated me. There was a road sign saying “Ford” as you drove up to it. After that, whenever I saw a Ford car showroom by the roadside, with the “Ford” sign, I thought that meant it was a ford as in an expanse of water.
