This can only mean Ford is going down, down down. The cheap labor in mexico is not enough to offset the the poor quality perfoamnce of most mexican laborers in mexico - the goods ones don't do unskilled labor, or move to the U.S.

😕

The ford plant in Hermosillo currently has the highest quality of all the ford plants...
 
And Chev and Dodge

"Mexican plants are considered efficient and have consistently high quality ratings. And assembly-line workers take home $8 to $10 an hour in pay and benefits -- a high wage in Mexico, but a bargain compared with the $60 it costs to employ the average U.S. unionized worker. Although labor costs account for just 10% to 15% of a finished car's cost, that margin can make a difference to Detroit's beleaguered auto makers."

American labour has priced iteself out of the market. . .
