I've been thinking about that for a couple days now.

I gotta go with "climate friendly".

Flint produced vehicles at 60 to 70 per hour, two shifts. That's one completed vehicle every minute of every working day.

Most of the other plants were in the mid 30's or 40's per hour (45 is typical).

I think you are seeing the attrition of vehicles produced in Flint that gave their lives in the salty midwest.
