Howdy!! Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 The week I hired into Wixom in 1965 I was told the plant would be closed by 1970, heard the same rumor several times through the next 40 years. Now Bill Ford said it will close. By June don't be surprised if Ford decides to utilize the plant for some new venture. I'm sure now that Bill said the plant will close the city of Wixom and the state will take the closing a little more serious and offer some super deals to Ford to utilize the plant for some use.

Howdy!! Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Denial is a sad thing. It's also sad to get upset about something you can't do any thing about. :P You may not be old enough to even no what denial is :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much was Granholm's offer to subsidize Wixom that Ford turned down? $100M+? I think that tells you something. They're either getting bigger cake offered from the other state governments, or the land will make them that much money, or both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
