Luckily no one got hurt. This is a long term customer of ours.

Roger on the hurt. They used to make that stuff at another plant in Greenville SC. I used to pickup there and go to Detroit, wander if they still do?

Yes, that plant is still there and we haul for them as well. They have over 30 plants in the US.

I think they need to get a Pulitzer for the title of the piece - Fire Torches Plant ...

A bunch of plants up here too. I read once that Magna produces enough parts to build a complete vehicle.

I used to work for them in Boyne City MI at their Lexamar plant and it was my understanding Magna which is Decoma's parent company did assemble the Chrysler 300 in Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria.

What a mess! We have 2 people on site at the burned out plant and I am at the warehouse, which is becoming the temporary plant. Talk about a great group of people pulling out every stop to perform a miracle and get some of these critical lines up and running by Sunday!!!!

Glad we could be a part of the solution as they have been a great long term customer.

Detroit can do the IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
