Hello everyone,

Just came across these two videos of the 2012 Focus being built at the Wayne plant in Michigan. Looks like they ran out of rims for the Titanium version as one of them looks to have spares all the way around.

Forgot to add one other. I know that it is for the factory in Europe, but we have the "happy seats" at the plants in the US as well.

Neat videos. Those workers are so nonchalant in their work. Think I'm way too anal to work an assembly line.

I used to work the line (in the maintenance department now), and after doing the same job day after day, minute after minute, you get so used to putting the parts on that you can do it in your sleep. I still have nightmares about that. The only thing that I noticed was there were no radios in the background. Guess they turned them off while the cameras were rolling. You can usually hear different stations playing throughout the plant.
