Myanmar? Where's that?  . Oh, right, Burma.

 

When a freely elected government changes the name of the country then I'll
go along.

We all know Ford's cars are made in the metric system, but when Ford sells
trucks to Myanmar, what units will appear on the instrument cluster?  Will
Ford have metric only as that is what other vehicles have on their
instruments or will Ford figure that since Myanmar is one of the uncommitted
three that it will give them miles?

If I'm not mistaken, Myanmar drives on the right and no American car company
produces right and drive cars in the US for the export market.  But I would
assume Ford Australia must produce right hand vehicles and maybe it the cars
will come in from Australia. 

 

Funny how the American press wants you believe the cars will come from the
US, otherwise why would they care if Ford sells cars in Myanmar if they are
produced somewhere else?
