Ford to Scrap existing 08's

I was told ,from a reliable source, that Ford is going to have the dealers send the remaining inventory of 08' F250/F350 and take them back for scrap to help build the upcoming years vehicles. I am not sure when, but the reason is slumping sales.

Agreed, the sales have slumped and the focus has moved towards more fuel economic vehicles but the sales by no means has stoped on the SD's nore is ford gonna call um all back.

Was it Honda that bought back thousands of cars because of saltwater damage?

I know this is not the same, but it has been done.

I am pretty sure Ford wants to SELL the remaining trucks at the dealers.
