when did ford start the twin i beam
Ford F-Series In 1965, the F-Series was given a significant mid-cycle redesign. A completely new platform, including the "Twin I-Beam" front suspension, was introduced that would be used until 1996 on the F-150 and until 2016 on the F-250/350 4x2. Additionally that year, the Ranger name made its first appearance on a Ford pickup; previously a base model of the Edsel, it was now used to denote a high-level styling package for F-Series pickups.[4]
Titanic II When the project was first announced in 2012, Palmer claimed that construction would begin before the end of the year, with a 2016 launch. The following year reports emerged that Clive Palmer was experiencing financial difficulties.[56][57] The start of construction was postponed to March 2014,[58] then to late 2014.[59] When construction had still not begun in 2015 a spokesman for Palmer said the project had merely been delayed, and that the new ship would be launched in 2018 - two years later than initially planned.[60] However Deltamarin had told an Australian Broadcasting Corporation journalist that work on the Titanic II project had been halted[61] while workers at the Chinese shipyard identified as the likely site of construction were highly skeptical that the project would ever move beyond the proposal stage[62] and the Blue Star Line trademark was "abandoned."[63] Queensland Nickel went bankrupt and Palmer faced freezing of personal assets to recoup money owed the company's employees and creditors.[64] When he declined to stand for re-election to his House of Representatives seat he stated that he might resume work on the project in his retirement.[65] Blue Star Line made no updates to their official web site after May 2014.[66] In May 2018 a European maritime equipment consortium published a list of all cruise ships on order through 2027 but none of the listed vessels fit Deltamarin's specificatons for Titanic II.[67]
