What happens if the car is built and QC'd before the shutdown, but not loaded for transport? Does it sit at the plant for the off-week?

I heard that for the week that they are shut down, all of the employees have free use of any car that has been QC'd.
It was part of the new union agreement and was given to them in lieu of some of the medical benefits.

I heard the same thing. It makes me glad my car is not produced yet. I hope workers enjoy every second they are behind the wheel of those newly produced Camaros and break the engine in nicely for the waiting owners. I am sure they will clean them up before shipping so it is like new again. This should answer the question why some cars are delivered with 20 miles + on them.

wasn't it weird he was "able" to take a pic of the "high secret" first white camaro in the assembly line when pic taking is supposed to be a No-No.... but no other pics of the plant despite countless requests?

![]() ![]() I kid I kid, Pretty sure it would just either get built before or after the break to be honest. From what I understand, these guys have been coming in on some Saturday's even to try and supply this initial Demand. |
