Ford planning to utilize aluminum for F-150 body

[Zembonez]

Read what I wrote guys. In contention not in the lead. I do add the both lines of GM.


As far as the issues, that's all you got? With the issues thy still sell.

Yeah.

Nothing important. Just engines.



Just yanking you Ford guys chains. I love the fact that the F-150 sells like crazy! GM isn't far behind... Trucks man! YAY!

Cool

So they're finally going to do something more than throw a new grille on it?

well, when it is in contention for best seller in the history of the world, you don't have to change much..

Combine Chevrolet and GMC sales and let's talk.

Yep. Pretty much a dead heat when you do that... and our engines don't spit out plugs, blow head gaskets, and crack heads at 130K.

Just sayin.

GM's AFM more than offsets those problems....

Hey! Ford fixed the spitting spark plugs thing several years ago. Now they don't come out at all, even when you want them to.

All in fun, GM and ChryCo have their fair share of problems as well.

We have to poke at those guys like Dave every once in a while right?

I am done with this thread. If we are gonna be civil, I want no part in this!

I wonder how much more the truck will cost now. Aluminum is much more costly not only to buy but to work with.

 

[Zembonez]

Bound to increase cost... but like everything else, they all go up.

 

[Lonesome7.3]

For me, getting a new truck is just not possible. They cost almost as much as a house now at days. If yo get a really nice one it costs more than a nice house. So adding to the costs makes it worse. I just do not see how they can sell so many new trucks with what they cost today.

Prices are frikkin crazy for sure.
