Plant layout design is a fundamental basis of today’s industrial plants. The ability of a producing facility to quickly and effectively adapt to changing market environment is becoming increasingly important to the success of any manufacturing organization. In the face of shorter product life cycles, higher product variety, unpredictable demand, and shorter delivery times, manufacturing facilities dedicated to one line can't be cost effective any longer.

factorymanagement said: I mean that in a totally jealous way I have 650 people who refuse to ask me questions it’s mucho lamo

I was unaware of there being a Cobalt fiasco, I’m going to have to look this up!

As far as the Camaro is concerned, I’ve never driven one, but they rate higher than the Mustang and Challenger on most reviews (from what I’ve seen.) They definitely are the best handling/most driver focused of the current generation muscle-car offerings from the big 3… well save for the Corvette, or the Viper, but those are in another league.

My only real complaint about Camaros (having at least been inside of one) is that the sight-lines from inside are really bad. One of the things I love about my Mustang is how open and airy it feels, and that despite it’s giant size, it’s not impossible to see out of. This is a party trick the Camaro, imo, has yet to master. I’m six feet tall, and doors are higher than my shoulders, almost making it feel like a chopped-top hot-rod when you’re inside.

Parallel parking in the Mustang is tricky, but doable… but I feel like parallel parking a Camaro would be sort of hellish, but that’s just opinion. You’d have to see for yourself.

I dote on practicality because in terms of the “important’ stuff, like the way it looks, how fast it goes, legacy, etc. etc. I feel like Camaros and Mustangs are pretty much in the same category. The plus side of the Camaro is that there aren’t too many outward differences between V6 models V8 models, so unless people are specifically hunting for that “SS” badge, they won’t really be able to tell at first glance.

If you have your heart set on a muscle car, there aren’t many other cars that will satisfy, but if you’re just looking for a “cool, fast car” there might be some other things worth looking at.
