The first article says that they build the Viper. The second article says they work at the Jeep plant. I think they work in the Viper paint shop which is at the Jeep plant. :dunno:

Either way, a Corvette?:dunno:

Unless something changed, aren't the panels still being painted by Saleen?

That Saleen plant closed last year. I thought a company in Indiana was currently painting the panels. Maybe the blems were being taken care of at the Jeep plant.:dunno:

Article 1 has been edited to say the Jeep plant. Doesn't look like the Viper guys won afterall :( Congrats to the Jeep guys though!

Jeep guy buying a new Corvette, when the Viper is almost out of production. What a dick! No wonder my briefly owned Jeep SRT-8 was such a POS.

It was indeed Chrysler workers, at Jefferson Ave Assy, paint-shop folks building Grand Cherokees.


CONNER Address snafu CAAP is 18,000 street numbers away

A hardy congratulations to all of them!! What a wonderful thing to happen to them. I hope that they are all there Thursday morning. It will be a hoot!!


You'll just have to drive down 18000 addresses or so, and as a JEEP owner of the highest order, offer them your hearty (or hardy) congrats instead!

Original post edited to reflect the story's typo in the description of the plant.

Title has now been changed to read "Michigan workers claim Mega Millions, Powerball jackpots"


sounds like the writer of this article is a numbnut! ;)

based on my math, unless that tax rate is **** for Michigan lottery winners (a friend of the family won the lotto not too long ago so I know what the take in IL is), the 14 folks will take home more than 1.2 mil as well.

anyway - congrats to those lucky 14! :usa:
