Ford Adding 3000 Jobs in Michigan – Investing 1.45 Billion in Increased US Manufacturing

Ford and American flag

Good news for Detroit and the Michigan economy. Ford Motor Company is investing 1.45 Billion in Michigan and creating  3000 jobs.

DETROIT (AP) — Ford Motor Co. is adding 3,000 jobs at two factories in the Detroit area and investing $1.45 billion to build new pickup trucks, SUVs, and electric and autonomous vehicles.

The company said Tuesday that about $750 million will go the Michigan Assembly Plant in the Detroit suburb of Wayne, where 2,700 jobs will be added during the next three years.

Another $700 million will be invested in the truck plant in Dearborn, Michigan, where 300 new jobs will be added.

This is not a bailout!

Ford is adding work in the US, and while I expect there are incentives, there always are, we feel obligated to give credit to the Trump economy (and commitment to improved Trade deals) as they continue to work (and create work) for average Americans.

Don’t look for too much coverage with that angle anywhere else this story gets “ink.”
