Eddie Sessum Report post Posted August 29, 2013 Ive always heard you dont want a car built at that plant. Didnt I read somewhere they wernt doing any hybrids or MKZ's there? Im thinking maybe it was fusion S only coming out of that plant this year because of how cheap it will be they can sell alot. I know alot of options arent available there and they automaticly goto mexico 1 djminfll reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corncobs Report post Posted August 30, 2013 I'm always a day late and a dollar short...Not really you posted the video that shows that they finally building Fusions at FRA. There a post maybe on the BOF that explained which models and packages can be scheduled at FRA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eddie Sessum Report post Posted August 30, 2013 My '05 Mustang GT convertible came from that plant and it has been trouble free.My 06 gt convertible came from there and leaked from the firewall the whole year I had it. . Ended up getting rid of it and a few years later I found out the solution ford came up with for the car was use like 6 tubes of caulk to seal up all the leak points.. If it was a good factory why do they only build low end models now? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it was a good factory why do they only build low end models now? They don't build "low end models". They build high volume models. The most efficient plan is to have the fewest number of parts that are used at both plants. 1 hybridbear reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
