very cool! they should hire all of us to build raptors. I'm in charge of color, and cost efficiency. Funners could be in charge of purchasing  :lol: :lol:

I saw something on TV once about a place maybe this one that was assembling ATV's & the job isn't glorified in any way. Fast paced to make quotas. People looked "tired" at the end of there shift.  :lol:  Yeah in a perfect world it would be like the intro to the Laverne & Shirley show.  :rofl:
Its cool their moving assembly here though  :thumbs:
