Looks identical to the honda plant I worked at. Stupid parts trains hauling ass, painted walkways, matching uniforms, sub-assy in-house etc all the same. Even copied the overhead trolleys delivering parts to the specific installation point, dashes, seats, wheels, engines, rear susp assemblies

Honda used a humongous parking lot next to their own train station, Ford uses a shipping port, guess thats one difference. Ford went there for non-union labor, Honda wont hire you if you're union

Ever looked out over 100,000 cars in one spot? Its impressive. Not so much fun to try and track down 30 possible problem cars in that sea of the same cars
