mike92b Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I am a tier two worker at FRAP. Been there just over a year. Was wondering if there is any truth to the following. Is a Lincoln car coming to FRAP? I heard tooling might start soon. Is there plans to expand the plant even more? Will there be another Cobra? Are we losing the Fusion? How bad is this mustang lunch going? Any chance a third shift gets added? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footballfan Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I saw in the Detroit News Sunday that there was supposed to be some sort of company event at FRAP this Thursday. I do not know if it is for the launch of the 2015 Mustang or a new product announcement. I have heard in the past that FRAP will be building the next-gen Taurus and MKS replacement. IMHO I doubt if the Fusion is leaving, unless Ford were to swap out MKZ production for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike92b Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Does any one know when they will be having the testing for skill trades? I was told by a few union people when I hired in a year ago it would happen, but every date I was told kept getting pushed back when I would ask again.

Slick650 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 The Taurus and MKS will go to FRAP and be put on an extended Fusion platform. Full size Taurus will still be built at CAP but will be a police sedan only. But as always with Ford you never know for sure untill it happens.
