I was curious to know where this is. I looked at the plant via satellite imagery and I see where they'd normally park the cars that are getting ready to load onto the train... but this was a much smaller loading area than I am used to seeing at most plants (the Rouge Plant where F-150's are made is much larger ... which many more loading ramps).

I wondered if they are parking the cars at an off-property storage lot. (They do that here in Dearborn... we'll sometimes see them parking F-150's that are awaiting shipping at other Ford land in the area.)
There's room for about 4000 cars on the plant lots, not even counting the diagonally striped lots that are presumably employee parking. There's almost 2000 "straight-line" spots on the south side lots, and another ~2150 on the northeast lot.

I previously estimated 3500 but doing another count now I see over 4000. With room for spill-over if needed.

Employees have to park in a lot off site to make room for cars. It’s about a mile walk.

Loved that show!
We could never watch it live. Couldn't stand to wait a week for the next episode, so we'd record the whole season and watch it all in a week. It was our original "binge" show.

That was my cell phone ringtone for many years. Finally switched it a couple of years ago to the 'In Like Flint' phone which is a little louder and clearer (I'm getting old).

Waiting was painful.
