T-bird Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2016/01/01/will-2016-be-ford-motor-companys-best-year-yet.aspx? Lots of reason to be optimistic! Hope Europe pans out. Hope new Super Duty is a hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) The big difference this year will be the fresh F150, with full inventory going into spring, sales are gonna be massive. Super Duty, Explorer, Edge, Escape, Fusion, Transit and Mustang will pile on top ensuring that Ford sees consistently high quarterly results and ATPs that make other manufacturers green with envy.

kyle Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Well they do have the products on the SUV and truck side-not sure how much production they will lose on the f250 changeover? Car sales remain stagnant as it does for just about everybody in the industry. Not sure what the south American market will do-think it has been mostly flat in a world of econmic turmoil. China is another one that could go either way, but I can't imagine their goverment just sitting by the side and letting the market linger. Think they just passed a new tax incentive on certain size automobiles to spur sales. Europe should move slowly in the right direction with Ford picking up market share with a slew of new products. Russia I have no idea what the year will bring and it is a fairly small market regardless. Barring some unforseen disaster the whole US market should remain strong but I do think it may slow down a bit in 2017-there is a fair amount of incentives in the market today and you have to wonder how long this can continue?

Pioneer Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Super Duty changeover should lose minimal production. They built a new body shop instead of retooling the old one. They will be doing the TT builds while the old model is running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StangBang Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) It would be if I could afford a new Mustang. Unless I win the lottery it will never happen. It's time to get out of my worn out old Probate. I need to replace it with something. Edited January 3, 2016 by StangBang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
