Ford adding 2,000-plus jobs at Kansas City Assembly

Ford will add more than 2,000 jobs at its Kansas City Assembly Plant to meet surging demand for the Ford F-150 and planned production of the all-new Ford Transit.

"Customer demand for today's F-150 is strong and continues growing, the truck segment is growing
three times faster than the overall industry, the housing market is strengthening, and we are seeing growth in the US economy," said Joe Hinrichs, Ford's President of The Americas. "Our 'Built Ford Tough' F-150 is America's favorite pickup, and we are going to expand operations in Kansas City to ensure we have enough trucks to meet customer demand."
