European Vacation- Early Production

All you yanks and otherwise maybe not informeds, listen up cuz you may want to know why the build dates are being accelerated. It has something to do with the plant shutting down for vacation this august. I'm not super sure that's good news for quality reassurance...

Yeah. Apparently they're all going to Brazil to watch their portuguese speaking mates produve engines. Right.

How'd you find that out? Interesting tidbit. Might actually be better production quality as they're drinking less pints and building more cars.

Would that also be why Hump's car missed the boat? He was originally scheduled for the Aida which left 22June but is now on the Traviata now scheduled for a (very) tardy departure of 05July?

Here's hoping the concentration is double and the machine is really cranking. My baby's coming out of that limey crackwhore.

Woah. Love that factory!! Really.


I'm afraid my dealership is a bit of a speakeasy itself. No, not with the booze, but there is so much information coming out of those rambling mouths, I often wonder if it is really prudent of them. But hey, makes a customer feel a bit on the inside.
