Harley Lover Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 The press preview days are January 9-10, only a bit more than 2 weeks away. What do we expect from Ford this year? Expy? Mustang MCE? Ecosport? More? Maybe even a glimpse of Model E? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BORG Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I read from somebody 'in the industry' who says it's the Mustang MCE and Expy, while Lincoln has no press conference this year and will debut Navigator in New York which makes some sense. I would not be surprised if Mustang is revealed ahead of the Expedition in the press, or Vice Versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be surprised if Mustang is revealed ahead of the Expedition in the press, or Vice Versa. Makes sense to me. Would surprise me if Expy was revealed via the press over Mustang since it's an all new model and Mustang isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmantpw Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 What about the F150 refresh with he diesel? When will we see that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 What about the F150 refresh with he diesel? When will we see that?Good point. If not Detroit, New York? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmantpw Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Good point. If not Detroit, New York? The F150 is almost always shown in Detroit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Good point. If not Detroit, New York? Since its a refresh, maybe the Texas state Fair? Has anyone posted about Job 1 changes for next year? I saw another site that the two day release schedule is pretty light for a major show like this, so there will most likely be lots of things off site? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harley Lover Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 This is not going to happen, but I would like to see Ford show the 'bones' of the Model E family, i.e. the chassis. That would leave the door open to speculation about sedan/hatchback/CUV configurations, and give Ford some publicity regarding what I presume would be its first bespoke hybrid/PIH/EV chassis. Seems like a win all the way around, not to mention I selfishly would like to see what they are doing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzcat Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Mustang update seems like a sure bet for Detroit. I suspect Navigator will go first (in Detroit) and Expy will follow in Chicago or NY. And my no-brainer advice for Ford - put some plastic cladding on the C-Max and watch the thing fly off dealer lots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpd80 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Mustang is expected to pick up the "Shelby look" as an easy up date while the Shelbys stay the same. The 10 speed auto is a certain for the 5.0 but I wonder if we'll see another HP Mustang variant that's not called GT500... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trailhiker Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I Wouldn't mind seeing a concept car...be it the next Ranger, Focus, hybrid CUV, or Model E. Maybe they could unveil a new engine on a stand by itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 [quote name="bzcat" post="990846" And my no-brainer advice for Ford - put some plastic cladding on the C-Max and watch the thing fly off dealer lots. This is actually a very interesting thought. It would not take much to restyle the Cmax to look like a soft-roader, and a hybrid version at that. Something along the lines of the Subaru Crosstrek.

630land Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Along with previous suggestions, change name of C-Max to "Escape-XL", and the "gotta have its" will empty wallets. Also, add a roof rack and tie downs. For the dreamers, maybe there will be imported FOE manual trans station wagons and BOF full size cars, using F Series chassis? For realists, I can see them maybe showing a Ranger or Bronco "concept" and Eco Sport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Well EcoSport was debuted at LA, so it will definitely have a display at NAIAS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyalbutconcerned Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 My guess: - Production Navigator - MCE Mustang - Expedition Concept - Ecosport - Ranger or Bronco concept - F150 Diesel - Maybe a North American interpretation of the Troller from Brazil (competition for the Cherokee) - Lincoln MKX and MKC with the new Lincoln front fascia - A Ford surprise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Nothing from Lincoln if BORG's info is correct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BORG Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) Nothing from Lincoln if BORG's info is correct Lincoln does not have a press conference which likely means no announcements, that's the info I'm going by. I'm told new Expedition and Mustang MCE for Ford in Detroit. The Navigator is suppose to debut in New York which is where Lincoln usually likes to show off new products or concepts if not Detroit. No concepts in the works from either Ford or Lincoln. It will be a busier 2018 for Ford. I'm really curious right now where the North American Fiesta stands and when that is to be revealed...if at all. Nobody seems to know a thing about it and I'm surprised it's not being announced in Detroit. Maybe New York's Ford announcement. BTW, naked Expeditions are running the streets of Dearborn with nothing more than camo paint. We should see some spy shots soon if the photographers are out there.

fuzzymoomoo Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 No concepts this year? Damn, I was really hoping to see the Ranger in some form. I saw one of those Expeditions last week on my way to M-Tec, I didn't say anything since I figured there would be spy shots soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
