Ford is spending $75 million to convert a truck plant to build small cars. The Wayne Michigan plan currently makes the Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator. Sales of the Expedition are down 39% this year and the Navigator is down 28%. Car production will begin in the plant in 2010. The plant will build the Ford Focus or another small car. When the conversion at the plant is completed, it will be a flexible production facility able to produce various vehicles on the same production line.
