Talk:Ford River Rouge complex

WWII activities

This article needs to include content about its WWII war production activities. Could someone who has knowledge of this add it? --rogerd 16:27, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

The name used might be incorrect. As far as I know, the correct name would be the Ford Rouge River complex. Can't find the use of River Rouge in any historical or official documentation. Maybe it's there and I missed it? River Rouge is a suburb south of the plant. Someone needs to research it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-32371-5 (talk) 02:35, 16 January 2026 (UTC)

Maps and aerial photos

I'm a bit baffled by the lat/long coordinates in all of the map & aerial photo links. I believe the point specified in the links is at the US Steel plant in Ecorse, not the Ford River Rouge plant in Dearborn. 64.112.202.93 15:04, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

You are correct. I've updated them. older ≠ wiser 15:58, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

The link on Google Earth is still to the USS plant. 68.112.175.59 23:27, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Current Operations

I'm surprised how little there is about current operations. From the F150 Wiki page I'm lead to believe that all F150's are produced in Kansas.

Also there are several facts delivered in the past tense that I believe are still current, and should be present tense.

I'm Totally surprised how little there is about ALL operations ! No numbers!? How many of what kinds & what brands of Machinery are & have been within the plant? How long is the longest assembly line? Has one sentence, that most components for all cars are made here ? Which how many? How many people worked at various times in which areas? Production levels !

Rogue Rogue Rogue Rogue Rogue Rogue

The word "Rogue" appears 6 times im the article. I suppose it might be appropriate, Henry Ford was a bit of a rascal as well as a great American. but perhaps it's just a typo for "Rouge"? METRANGOLO1 (talk) 12:37, 11 August 2025 (UTC)
