(AP) - A Lincoln Town Car is shown in the Wixom Assembly Plant parking lot in Wixom, Mich., Monday, Jan. 23, 2006. Ford Motor Co., the nation's second-largest automaker, said Monday it will cut 25,000 to 30,000 jobs and idle 14 facilities as part of a restructuring designed to reverse billion-dollar losses in North America. Plants to be idled through 2008 include the St. Louis, Atlanta and Wixom assembly plants and Batavia Transmission in Ohio. Windsor Casting in Ontario also will be idled, as was previously announced following contract negotiations with the Canadian Auto Workers. Another two assembly plants to be idled will be determined later this year, and production at St. Thomas Assembly in Ontario will be reduced to one shift. A total of 14 facilities, including seven assembly plants, will cease production by 2012. (AP Photo/Paul Sancya)
