That's a good point regarding the transport chain. On a cheaper model like Corsair on its own maybe the math is fuzzy, but if you already have a boat going over with Nautilus, you'd just take more space.
What a shame. Their clothes were pretty decent before they got taken over by private equity. I also really miss those Eddie Bauer Explorers and Expeditions....
I think it’s still viable to import Corsair and since the Nautilus transportation chain is already in place, maybe a lot easier than if a stand alone decision
Tariffs make things hard but maybe the premium price of Lincoln justifies the effort in keeping those monthly sales - established market, Ford can see real figures. Should know soon and if no announcement to the contrary Lincoln may play own coming from China
This can’t just be Fird alone, so I wonder how many Euro brands are also talking with Chinese automakers about JVs……
Either sign up now or risk being financially mauled
Just enough leaking out of the bag to drive the news hungry
1 . Ford buying a plant in Thailand
2. Ford looking for Chinese partners with US manufacturing
3. Ford looking at some sort of JV with Geely in Europe
So if you don’t like the current Ford plan, just wait a month or two…..
Why would the CEO show off a photo of a Maverick when talking about the aerodynamics of the EV?
Given how excited he is about this project, that would be stupid.
