Watch your build from Start to Finish?

I was wondering if anyone has gone to Dearborn to watch their build from start to finish? I think it would be a great and fun thing to do! Fly out there and take pictures and videos of the entire build of the truck you order. Do they allow people to do that? The other thing that would be great is to see how they are put together and see all the motors etc.

I had pictures of my Honda Goldwing coming out of the crate and being out together and it was just cool to have it.

I know a lot of people who do this for highend, custom performance boats. It's pretty cool. I wonder if the people at the factory would act differently if they knew the owner was looking over their shoulder?

When I worked in the automotive industry in Michigan, I got to visit the Ford truck assembly plant a few times. It is a very impressive operation. You could almost eat off of the floor.

It takes something like 24 hours to build a truck. It's not interesting enough to keep your attention that long.
