FB user claims his Maverick was made in Rouge Plant

[Decayed]

They amount of tooling necessary to press the body panels alone is staggering. If you point this out, he will simply claim Ford moved the tooling to Hermisillo after they finished prototyping.

Or, he got a sticker from somewhere and stuck it on his window.

Which is more likely.

I caught a shark in lake Michigan.

I weigh 150 lbs and bench 350 lbs.

I get 50 mpg towing a 4,000 lb camper with my Maverick Hybrid.

Lies are easy.

Maybe he is not lying and it was manufactured in a Rogue plant AKA BOBBIE'S GARAGE using parts of several insurance totaled mavericks!

Stuff like this makes great conversation about half way thru a case on a Saturday night.

The VIN has the manufactured location. I’d bet it’s the same as ours.

100% why I asked him.

It's not secret. You can see any VIN walking around a parking lot.

Hecho en Mexico

Last time I toured the Rouge they were making F-150's. Did they rebuild the line just to build a couple of Maverick's? Not likely.

“Rogue plant”

Correct. With PRIDE

Wait Detroit employees have pride. Huh I’ve never noticed that when I’m in town. Notice lots of other things but pride is not one. Lol

Not a chance. If it was a hand-built Engineering/test mule, it would have never been sold to the public.

Indeed. Even all the demos that went out to reviewers were made in Mexico, I doubt any were made in the US.

I wonder if I can get a Norfolk VA sticker?
Yes, on eBay. Made in the USA baby!

Also if any were manufactured at other plants it would show in the recall affected information. Even the pre-production trucks are encompassed in the recall date ranges.

My f150 has a flat rock assembly sticker on it but it didn't come from there...my guess he works at DAP

Reminds me of when I got the confirmation that my Maverick Lightning was being produced.
