All Ford has to do is weather the storm.The more opposition car manufacturers fall over the better. Things will turnaround eventually and when they do i beleive Ford will benefit significantly.Quite obviously they will also have to learn from their past mistakes.
Don't worry about parts suppliers , there are plenty in China ,whether they are good enough quality wise is another question but they will be there to fill the void. I worked at the South Pacific Tyres manufacturing plant in Somerton and we supplied most of the OE tyres to Ford. We closed down and now Ford are getting their tyres from China albeit from the same company.ie Goodyear owned SPT now the tyres are coming from Goodyear China. |
