Default Good news! Ford reopens 302/351C plant to produce Ecoboost V6

Great news! They say no new jobs, but this will assure jobs for the time being which is almost as good. Northern Ohio has gotten its *** kicked when it comes to jobs over the last 20 years.

Im hoping for that area that Ford will eventually build more Ecoboosts there (as the article states). I know it's not a V8 guys, but engines like the Ecoboost V6 will help the Mustang survive the next 20 years before they would probably go all electric.

Ford seems to be the only one making any head way. This is great news, but GM and Chrysler can't seem to figure it out.

I read an article about Ford that unfortunately points to them needing help by the end of this year, BUT they have already done all of the overhauls GM is having to do, so they should be profitable sooner.
