GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump has been targeting Ford, that they are moving its small car production from Michigan to Mexico. You would think he was trying to bust a Bronco.

Speaking about the governmental candidate’s continued criticism of the car manufacturer’s plan, Bill Johnson, the UAW plant chairman for the factory which is at the center of the switch, revealed the still-secret cars that the compact Focus and hybrid C-Max designs are making way for.

Johnson told the Detroit News that “Trump needs to get his facts straight,” and stated that other car manufacturers have currently moved less profitable small car production south of the border.

“We hate to see the products go to Mexico, however with the Ranger and the Bronco coming to Michigan Assembly that definitely secures the future for our individuals a lot more than the Focus does,” he stated.

The factory remained home of the Bronco from 1966-1986, and developed trucks until a few years earlier, when Ford began producing small automobiles there in conjunction with a $5.9 billion Energy Department loan for fuel efficient automobiles.

Since then Ford revealed it was bringing brand-new automobiles to the center, reports have actually been swirling that they would be a new Ranger small pickup and a Bronco SUV based upon it, however Johnson is the first individual who likely understands for sure that’s said it out loud.

In the meantime, Ford itself is sticking to its “we do not comment on future product” line. The new Mexican factory is going to open in 2018.
