Ford Adapting to New Reality

Ford is announcing a $75 million investment in its Michigan truck plant to retool it for C-class small car production.

"The plant will begin converting its body shop in November when the tooling and equipment specific to the Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator will be disassembled and transferred to Kentucky Truck Plant [...] in the interim, 1,000 employees will be transferred next door to Wayne Assembly Plant where a third crew will be added in January to accommodate increased production of the hot-selling Ford Focus."

I hope that it's not too little, too late. Read the complete article at treehugger.com.
