Argentina also has a current inflation rate of about 100% annually. And the Mav Hybrid price listed in the article is roughly $68,000 US Dollars. Can't imagine Ford selling a lot of them there at that price.

Imagine a company making a business decision to increase their business.

Buy something else, you have alternatives.

Wait, it's MTC. We are supposed to whine like little purple haired snowflakes needing a safe zone.

Keep in mind, the plant is in Mexico staffed by Hispanic people. I’d imagine they would have the same sense of outrage if 100% of production went to the USA.

I am on 3 or 4 automotive forums. The lack of even third grade spelling and grammar is apparent. Most of the time, BRAKE and BREAK are interchangeable, even in the same post(s). Thru, threw and through seem to be a challenge for most posters.
I often wonder,"How the hell can someone with a lack of a grade school education even afford a vehicle." Then, I hear college students talk about getting "orientated", and I understand.
Bear in mind the everyone is equal and gets a trophy results in educating to the level of the lowest.

Yes. Easier to pass them on to the next teacher than it is to actually teach them.

I was in Argentina in 23 and they have a ton of Chinese junk on the road there. Prices for vehicles are crazy high because of taxes and tariffs. There is a lot of wealth there, not like the USA of course but you can tell the people with money are laying low. Here the thing they have fun subsidies so gas and diesel are cheap. I cant see the Maverick being super popular; but its a different vehicle there, if fill a different gap. There are no full size pickups to speak of.
