Ford Delays 09 F-150

2008 F150-2

It looks like Ford will hold back by a few months on the 2009 intro of the next Gen F series workhorse.

Nothing surprising here, Ford dealers are awash in the present truck and are in no position to take on the new model.

This is just not good news for Ford and the other Auto makers that relied on trucks for their profits. Things are bad here, in the past a delay in a new generation truck from Ford would be greeted with Dismay and complaints.

Today it's greeted with Crickets chirping, Ford is still far from out of the woods, the product line up is still woefully short of what is needed today.

There's still a real possibility that Ford might not make it, GM is now freefalling towards the same situation.

Times are bad.
