Another bad day for Ford

Well at 1045am today the last car rolled off the ford assemblelly line at the Ford Wixom Plant in Wixom Michigan. This plant assembled the Lincoln Town Cars. The future of the plant and plant workers is unkown right now. But for Michigan that community it is a sad day. Most workers will be employed until all equipment is gone and the building is cleaned up.

This info is coming from a buddy who works there.

That's really sad. I know down here in Alabama seems like there's a new car plant opening every where, we have the Mercedes M-class plant right up the road from my house, there's a Honda plant a couple hours away, I know the Nissan Titan plant is right over in Mississippi, there everywhere.

Yeppers everyone is moving out of my state. They are going south where labor is cheaper. I think we got spoiled with great pay for so long now that the companies want to cut the pay everyone is complaining and unions are striking there for they just close shop up and move out. But good news is Toyota is moving into Michigan with force. Toyota has 5 or 6 new plants to go online in the next couple years in Michigan.
