The Fiesta came out in WS from Germany, then WT shifted to Thailand, LW Focus is starting out Germany then shifting to Thailand, why cant they do the F150 in Thailand as well to keep prices down? |

IMO, Ford should make F150 and F250 as one vehicle (F200) to remove overlap and make space for Ranger below it. Ford would then have over 80% of F Truck sales on one platform as well as a thriving global export program for the US. Quote:
perhaps a reasonable gap is needed to establish F150 down reach of Ranger buyers before realising the error of not having a Ranger/F100 to compete with Tacoma and Colorado Head of T6 Ranger project is on record as saying Ranger was designed with all US regs in mind. but that Ford intends pursuing F150 sales there rather than worrying about T6 for now...

when you look at the big picture here in aus its seems a stupid mistake to try selling f series here in aus when our sales share has been fastly moving toward small cars.

In saying that you may have a point if the majority of F250 sales are for family haulers as opposed to workhorses, which I'm guessing is the case. |
