Production of most Ford and Lincoln models faced some sort of decrease in July compared to June, which is par for the course. This is due to the fact that The Blue Oval tends to implement summer shutdowns at some of its plants in July, while the Independence Day holiday also slows things down a bit. It’s unclear if that was the case with Ford F-150 production last month, but it also declined compared to June, too.
According to FoMoCo’s latest sales report, Ford F-150 production at the Dearborn Truck plant in Michigan totaled 15,745 units last month, which is 9,049 units or 36 percent fewer than June’s total of 24,794. Meanwhile, at the Kansas City Assembly plant, Ford F-150 production closed out July at 13,119 units, which is a drop of 13,290 units, or around 50 percent fewer than June’s tally of 26,409 units. This means that total Ford F-150 production in July came in at 28,864 units, which is a substantial drop of 22,339 units or around 44 Â percent less than June’s cumulative total of 51,203 units.
This result continues a bit of a roller coaster ride for Ford F-150 production through the first half of 2024, too. In Dearborn, F-150 production increased big time in February before staying largely flat in March, decreasing in April, then growing in May prior to this latest drop. In Kansas City, that has largely been the same story, too.
As Ford Authority previously reported, the refreshed 2024 Ford F-150 gained a number of updates for the new year, aside from the typical front and rear styling revisions. Those include a revamped trim level lineup with the addition of the new Platinum Plus model, the newly available Pro Access Tailgate, a standard 12-inch infotainment screen, and the turbocharged 2.7L V6 EcoBoost has become the new standard powerplant, to boot.
