Sounds like they are all made in America to me

Well, my 2018 Lariat 3.5L came with exactly the same sticker.

I'm linking to Ford corporate sites. Make your own determination.

The 2.7 has been available since 1957?

History. Man I used to be so good at that ! Was at the Senior Awards last night with my youngest daughter's class. They gave the American History Award and scholarship to a Mexican kid who migrated here 4 years ago. Ironic.

I was walking around the dealership today and noticed the 3.5 eco were made in Mexico. Its a shame that we pay so much for our trucks and sh#t is made out of the USA. Also I noticed all 6 speed manuals in the mustangs on the lot are made in China.... incredible.
