5.0 production update
 
For those who do not read the Canadian newspapers (except maybe for hockey) we had the announcement everyone was waiting for this past week. That a second shift will be added to ESSEX Engine plant and that we will continue to install new equipment for a "new" version of the Coyote.
No one mentioned the vehicle, but whe all know it is not the new Focus!
Yes ...it is the F150! With this addition ESSEX Engine will be able to produce over 230,000 engines a year. 5.0 Mustang engine production has already started, and 5.0 truck production will get underway in August.

GREAT News! Thanks for the update! I look forward to the 2011 F-150 late this year - November I hear.

That doesn't seem like enough engines if you factor pick-ups, van, and suvs.
