Tags Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I don't believe that the Mexican truck plant produces the same truck we do. I believe they build the previous generation Super-Duty. If anything this may help KTP. BTW -- What's up with our production schedule at NAP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard 8's in Jan and 1 down week a month from Feb thru June. Who knows? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything this may help KTP. BTW -- What's up with our production schedule at NAP? When they closed the F 150 plant in Ontario, they apparently shipped alot of the equipment down to Mexico to build the "heritage F150(old body style).

Harry Bennet Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 NAP will not close before 2009 and probably not after 2012 with the new ASRS there is a huge chance to regain floor space in Final Instead of having 5 rows of boxes waiting to be built and all those built boxes under the office that space can open up The ASRS sends the box to final 80 or so units after the cab so they reach body deck at the same time I am not sure how to lay it all out but we could extend trim 1 and 2 (maybe) I really hope that puts the crew cab in NAP What would you like to see that floor space used for?

NorfolkBuilt Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 Your plan sounds good to me Harry,lol.NAP is in good shape.I was just reading an article that was saying that we will get to build some of the Flexible Fuel Vehicles in the future.As far as the Auto retrival system,thats a good investment for us to.The main thing that would have to be done for us to get crew-cabs (if ever),is to redo our VLC's.But its possible.
