Oac98 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Up here in Oakville Canada, the word is May 25th. Rotating one shift. Like two weeks on two weeks off. That’s the rumor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oac98 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Looks like FOMOCO has all their safety protocols and guidelines in place for us to get back to work in some capacity. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the rumor. From what they said in the article, the plants with 3 shift would shift to two and so on till you hit plants with just one shift, which I guess they could just split. Given how the auto sales market is, that would prob be for the best anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger sales seem to have found their level for now. We should pick up a lot more once Bronco finally gets here, assuming of course the economy recovers.

Given what I've been seeing, I think the rest of this year is going to be a wash and you won't see a pickup til next Summer...then again see how the election goes too.

I think the market will react more positively to a Trump win over Biden simply because we know what the economy was already doing under Trump and the market likes certainty. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read an article today on fordauthority saying ranger sales have caught up to the Colorado so I believe MAP will be just fine plus upcoming Bronco like you said. We at OAC were told May 25 A SHIFT goes in for days. Then the following week June 1 B shift comes in for nights. Then both shifts will return to our regular daily rotation. For the first two weeks only one shift will be coming in at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
