"Shortened Raptor frame"? Jeez wonder who the brave soul was who made the first cut on that?? This thing is cool though!

Unless there is an agreement between the Union and company. Per the contract, tier 2 has no ability/rights to sign transfer bids to another plant. Deals have been made in the past. But there is no language guaranteeing the right.

That red looks sweet with those wheels!

Its only been public for an hour, and im already praying it has a much longer life than the previous GT! This is a halo car Ford should make a permanent part of their portfolio. Its .....just.......simply.......awesome!

The wording I heard used multiple times regarding the E cutaway was "through the end of the decade". And that was from plant managers.

I wouldn't wait...........find out the number to labor relations and call them and explain what happened.

I think you can only transfer if you have RTBU or the plant you are at now has people on ILO.

Ok please dont crush me but......if your spouse is covered by their job, what would be the big deal? Especially if the coverage was equal to the Ford insurance?

They ran on separate lines at OHAP.

You're right Pioneer. .......I believe most were given various options.

Good=forever. ......an English major I "ain't"

Walton Hills Stamping ran its last parts today (10/03/2014) forever. Unfortunately the demise of the Econoline at OHAP was the death sentence for WHSP. Many of the employees will transfer to the Cleveland Engine plant. But some trades are being ILO ed to the street. And for future reference in regards to this years negotiations. ........all the tier 2 people were ILO ed to the street with absolutely no rights to sign any available transfer bids. They arent eligible per the union.........which is B.S.

The new rumor where I work is that the E cutaway has been extended to 2024. Supposed strong contract orders for the next 10 years.

Ive worked for Ford for over 20 years. Ive never heard of this "999". Not once. This is the first time ever.

KCAP continues to build 2014 s while DTP changes over. But.....is KCAP building every model and trim level???? That I cant answer

Chrysler just demolished a perfectly good stamping plant in Twinsburg, Ohio about a year ago.

"Do you drive a Lincoln?....no?.....it would be alot cooler if you did"

I found out today that the 2.3 will be built in Cleveland along with the 2L EB beginning this fall. So Cleveland will supply North America, while Valencia engine will supply Europe. So to answer your question. ...they are similar enough to be built on the same line.

And built in the USA at Cleveland Engine plant.

^^^ ewww not a pretty truck is it?

I think the new Edge timing might be right on the money.......just as interest in the old model is waning, bam......here come the all new Edge.

All I said was where the engine was built. Nothing more, nothing less.

Yep same engine as mustang..........the american icon with a Spanish built engine (the 2.3)

Pretty sure its just a piss test
