Does the plant have enough Kicker equipment to do 15 cars a day?

15 SRT8s a day

At 15 cars a day, looks like it will be a long time before they get to the promised 5000. I wonder if they'll gear up production enough before they have to change over to 07 model year.

Yep, by my calculations, taking away weekends, that's only ~2400.

Sounds like someone needs a KICKER in the ass so some of you boys get your SRT-8's sooner than later!

The assembly line was allocated over to Charger production - DCX have a big promotion on surrounding the NASCAR race this weekend. Chargers are arriving at dealers, as you read this.

SRT-8's should be back on track now.
