Sad that American companies are shrinking and here is ANOTHER example of a foreign car maker coming here to build, which is good in terms of immediate jobs.

I might take a trip and take pics soon.

Wow! Great shot!

If you've never taken a tour of an automotive assembly line, I HIGHLY recommend it. I toured the Honda plant in Marysville, OH about four or five years ago where they build the Accord and TL (and others, I think) and it was an AWESOME experience.
