Very cool. No traditional assembly line like the ICE F-150s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Definitely interesting to see pictures vs. a normal plant. I wonder if this design will also cut down costs/time for retooling for MCEs/redesigns? It looked like there's less "permanent" equipment that would need changing - permanent isn't the right word, but looks like less built in if that makes sense.
