Has '02 L production ended yet?
If not, does anyone know when it is scheduled to stop.

TIA,

Collin

Or at least they'll be done by July for the plant shutdown to retool for 03.

Do they retool every year or just when body changes?Why would they need to retool when 03s are the same?

Question
I thought the Ontario truck plant was to be shut down after the '02 model year. Aren't all Lightning's made in Ontario? If the Lightning is produced in '03, where will it be produced?

We are still building Lightnings as of today. I would imagine that production of SVTs will end around the end of June. There is no retooling at OTP for the shutdown and the latest rumour is we will be running until the second quarter of the '04 model (April '04 ) Lets see what happens.
