Just to confirm the update from Sarge on this tour.
This is a manufacturing plant and you will be required to wear safety glasses (provided), No Open Toe Footwear.....women or men ( I say that because I'm almost always in Teva sandals all summer).
No rings or loose jewelry, on an assembly line there is a quality word called "FOD" (Foreign Object Damage) as a new vehicle owners the last thing you want is a piece of something going through your engine. Ask Barry Grubb to explain....it could be heart BREAKING.
 
Now my wedding ring will not come off my fat finger without a pair of side cutters so we will see how that works out......but I think they are concerned about loose jewelry.....
 
So please bring some sneaks or shoes for the tour, you will not be allowed in the plant otherwise.
 
This is a worldclass engine assembly plant and will be an outstanding tour for sure, thank's to our 3 amigo host's for setting it up!
