fuzzymoomoo Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Aluminum in one week? This oughta be good. From what I understand is the aluminum bodies are coming from a brand new from the ground up body shop, which they've been testing and tweaking for months now.

fuzzymoomoo Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Any plant connected to KTP scheduled for any down time in August? Been hearing about that one also. Sharonville? They could be doing the same thing FRAP is doing since they're both launching new models after shutdown. FRAP has another week in August scheduled to catch up on any repairs that they will inevitably need to do for the D544 launch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
