In the news this morning, it was announced that Ford might be packing up local manufacture earlier than originally planned. The sort of numbers the Falcon is selling at now is so low, you have to wonder how they can keep making them. I reckon the updated model planned for later this year may never make it to the market, which would probably be a shame.
If Ford does pack it in early, it will have a flow-on affect to the other two makers because the parts suppliers will be hit with reduced orders earlier than they anticipated, too, so their costings will have to be rejigged to maintain their viability. Interesting times ahead.
