Ford's Kansas City F-150 Plant Is Live - PickupTrucks.com
My co-workers go the same places with their Ram Truck with less problems than I have with my F-150. Ford left me down, Ford abandoned me, that 2015 wasn't built for me, it was built for the new customer that never owned a truck before. Ford is telling me they don't want me as a customer anymore, they don't need me. They placed all their eggs in one basket and in time it will catch up to them. As it currently stands they are only producing around 10k-12k new aluminium F-150s at their Detroit, Henry Ford plant. As good as it is to employ more people, this has yet to translate into volume and numbers moved off the lot for Ford. Ford is selling less pickups with a few thousand more workers. Is this a competitive position for Ford. Is more going on behind the scenes that Ford doesn't want market analysts and shareholders to know about. As of the end of february ford has sold 7,000 more pickups than at this point in 2014. 2015 f-150 is one of the fastest selling trucks right now. I expect ford sales to be down.
