Mitsubishi and Ford worked together in the 1980s to produce pickup trucks for the American market. That’s a partnership that still boggles the mind today, 40 years later. The partnership is made all the more surprising by the fact that Chrysler held a 15% stake in Mitsubishi Motors Corporation in the early 1980s, so Mitsubishi apparently had a pretty mercenary attitude about who it would and wouldn’t do business with.
