Order it and watch it built in Louisville. I know you use to able to do that with vettes up the highway in Bowling Green, KY.
Fly in, take delivery and cruise back to Cali in style!

Well, I tried to call the plant and got the message that they don't allow tours.

IF you'd like to go ahead and call, by all means. If you are local, I would even drive to the plant.

Give it a shot and if not, maybe your man can get you some kind of contact info.

I haven't heard anything from the Chamber of Commerce. The lady there was supposed to try to find me a contact person..

Where is that thread? I can't seem to find it - there's like 3 different 7.3 forums and since I don't own a smoker, I tend to stay out of there - I'm afraid I may offend someone with my v10.
