Ford is idling the factory where it makes its F-150 Lightning electric pickup trucks until next year .

The plan is to shut things down after the last shift on Friday, November 15th , at which point the plant will be closed for seven weeks .

The company cited “industrywide pricing pressure” as among the reasons for the decision.

It's another unwelcome hiccup in Ford 's path to becoming a global EV producer.
