fuzzymoomoo Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) I lost my ability to edit my last one for some reason so here's an updated list of current and Former Ford production facilities. Below is a list of Ford's final assembly plants (both current and former) and their respective abbreviations. Hopefully this clears up any confusion for those who don't know and see people bringing them up in conversation. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ OAC : Oakville Assembly Complex. Formerly OAP - Oakville Assembly Plant and OTP - Ontario Truck Plant - Edge, Lincoln Nautilus DTP : Dearborn Truck Plant. This is the assembly plant currently operating at the Rouge Complex - F-150, F-150 Raptor, F-150 Diesel MAP - Michigan Assembly Plant. Formerly MTP - Michigan Truck plant and WAP - Wayne Assembly Plant. (MTP/MAP and WAP are technically separate facilities, MAP being active and WAP being closed). Wayne Assembly is mostly storage or empty now but a small part of the building is part of MAP ISA (Stamping) making parts for other plants. There's a big project going on in there now and it will become the MOD center for MAP, and a new autonomous vehicle center that was announced in spring 2019. - Ranger - Future home of Bronco FRAP - Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Previously, this was called "AAI" from "Auto Alliance International", when Mazda and Ford had a joint ownership stake. - Mustang, Lincoln Continental CAP - Chicago Assembly (this abbreviation is used less often on the forum, the plant is usually called "Chicago" here) - Explorer (including PI versions), Lincoln Aviator KCAP - Kansas City Assembly Plant - Line 1 - F150 (Except for Raptor and Diesel) - Line 2 - Transit HMO - Hermosillo Assembly Plant - Fusion, Lincoln MKZ - Future home of Bronco Sport CUAP - Cuautitlan Assembly Plant (like CAP, this abbreviation is used less often. Usually we use a misspelled version of Cuautitlan) - Currently down for Retooling. Future home of Mustang Mach-E OHAP - Ohio Assembly Plant (in Avon Lake, on the outskirts of Cleveland) - E-Series Cutaway, F650, F750, Super Duty Chassis Cab KTP - Kentucky Truck Plant (in Louisville) - Super Duty, Expedition, Navigator LAP - Louisville Assembly Plant (also in Louisville, but nowhere near KTP) - Escape, Lincoln Corsair -- Defunct plants that are mentioned from time to time: SLAP - St. Louis Assembly (last product: the BOF Explorer) STAP - St. Thomas Assembly--In St. Thomas, Ontario halfway between Toronto & Detroit (last product: Crown Vic, Town Car) TCAP - Twin Cities Assembly (last product: Ranger) Norfolk - Norfolk, Virginia (last product: F150) Wixom - Wixom, Michigan (last product: Town Car--yes, the Town Car closed down two factories) Edison - Edison, New Jersey (last product: Ranger--just like the Town Car!)
