I wonder if the workers get to build their own ford and keep it for free or if they just get to drool and settle for a GM vehicle lol

I ordered a 2012 F-150 Raptor and it's scheduled to be built in this plant this week. Amazing to see how it's built, I wish there was a video showing the entire build process. I can't believe they built all the different F150 variations all at once, I would have bet anything they built all the special editions in single runs. Seems so complex to built 7 or 8 different styles with so many combinations of options all at once.

Do you remember those Nissan commercials with an old Asian guy ? If that guy was the CEO of the Ford Motor Company then that truck facility will be an empty lot and all these pickup trucks will be shift production to Canada at a Ford facility that made the Crown Victoria because of his view of meeting higher standards of quality for those trucks killing 100% of the working crew in Dearborn by shifting 100% of Dearborn's production to St.Thomas, Ontario Canada.

The interviewer needs to learn to let to ford reps speak and let them explain the process and stop interrupting them with coments that he knows very little to nothing about.
