Can you say who's engine plant? Gas or diesel? What engine? Anything? I'm curious now. In Tennessee, I'm assuming either Nissan or GM.



Not to get off topic or anything, but as a mechanic, I've always found it amazing the mass production process of assembling an engine. Just really amazing that they assemble them so fast and they run as long as they do. Comparatively, it takes forever to do a good rebuild of a motor in a shop. Sure, a lot of that is parts cleaning and machine work.... but even if you have everything sitting there it still takes quite a while to assemble one. You mechanics know what I mean. I mean.... how many motor are assembled in the factory a day? Hundreds right?
I started a new thread in the general talk area for those interested.
