A reprieve for St. Paul?

Posted at 11:07 AM on June 25, 2008 by Bob Collins (0 Comments)

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford is considering extending the life of the Ford Ranger pick-up truck by another two years.

That's the vehicle Ford makes at its St. Paul assembly plant, which was -- and still is -- scheduled to close next year.

If the report is true, that's quite a feather in the hat of Sen. Norm Coleman, who met with Ford officials in Detroit earlier this month.
