You will never see a $30K F150 when will you stop dreaming, you keep going on and on and on. Surely you don`t believe what your typing. And for the billionth time last time I looked Ford have not said that they are stopping manufacturing here.

Well done. Even the cheesy late 80's music can't bring it down.

The question is do you understand how companies do business? If it was your product and you knew you could get more for it in another country would you sell it at the same price?

I imagine Ford US maybe saying something like this:
"We are selling all the F-series we can build here in US, so why would we export ? Only to build image. Au has a greater appreciation for small trucks than large ones, so Ranger is getting the bread and butter. Lets send the F-Series there as an image builder, a Truck to aspire to" Quote:

Ranger is Ford's new global pickup. And it is far more 'built for purpose'.
