I'm curious how a Camaro actually travels from the factory to a dealer? Can anybody shed any insight into the process? I don't mean to ask the typical "when is my Camaro getting here" question, but rather, how does a Camaro get from there to here?? I'm in Texas, the Camaro starts out in Lansing, and I was wondering if they travel by rail on a train, on top of an 18-wheeler car carrier trailer with multiple other GM or Chevrolet (only??) cars, or something else?

Bottom line, I'm wondering if anybody here has insight into the GM (or Chevrolet?) logistics process, into how they take Camaros by the hundreds out of a factory lot in Lansing, and get them to their final dealership destinations. And, on average, how long the process takes. (Again, not "when is my Camaro getting here", but "how long does the average logistics chain process take to get a car from a factory to a dealership").

thanks!!
