This would be interesting - I was told last week that all the equipment was moved out and is rather bare inside...Janesville was a major distribution center for other cars and trucks, but that comes to an end as all chevys coming into Wisconsin will be farmed out to independant drivers as AAG loses 150 or so jobs. Many are retiring.
The independants have their own equipment - should be real interesting when dealing with any claims for in-transit damage. I was told one dealer had a claim denied with the new delivery service, because there was no way to track which hauler actually dropped the cars involved in the claim....
We lost a huge Tahoe / Suburban market here with many people loyal to GM's Janesville production facility. We never had any quality issues out of Janesville I was aware of. It will be an interesting next 12 months.
