Ford experiences a strong demand for models like the like Ford Explorer and Ford Transit Connect no matter where they're being sold in the world. Those who need proof of this notion needn't look any further than Russia, where the two models sell phenomenally well. In fact, sales are so strong, that Ford is planning to begin producing the vehicles in the region soon, which is something that we here at Anderson Ford would like to take a minute to share the details with you about.

Strong demand has led to sales ranging from 2.6 to 2.7 million so far in 2011, which is quite a bit more than the Association of European Businesses had originally predicated. More specifically, they foresaw the American automaker selling around 2.45 million vehicles this year. What's more impressive, however, is that since 2009, Ford has actually seen a 30 percent increase in sales.

Russian production of Ford models is set to begin in 2012, and that's only the beginning the for American automaker, who's sure to have much more success in the country for years to come. Of course, the new Ford models that you find here at 1001 State Route 10 West Clinton, IL 61727 will continue to be American made for years to come.
