very neat.

 

Wow that's awesome. Too bad the big 3 don't do that stuff.

 

thats pimp. i would love to go there some day.

 

which part?

The ford ranger plant in MN has tours. I got to walk all around the factory and watch people make the trucks.

The part delivery was pretty damn cool, wow that would be very convenient.

 

Well, in the late 1940's GM hired a famous Architect, Eero Saarinen, to design the GM technical center in Michigan. The superior design was supposed to symbolize GM's superior products (much like the vid says of VW) It is too bad that GM has gotten away from that mindset.

Eero did other buildings such as the TWA flight center at JFK, CBS building in NY, and the St. Louis Arch.


Anywho, that is a pretty sweet factory. I'd love to have a little robot that brought my tools/parts to me.

 

I think he means a transparent building.
