Is the factory open 7 days a week?
Is the factory open 7 days a week? I just noticed my car just started being built this evening a Friday night. That assumes of coarse that the status updates are in real time.

It’s just a guess, but I did a little math based on published production numbers in SC plant Spartanburg from 2022:
416,301 vehicles produced 1500+ built per day = 277 days That would mean about 88 days off / year Which is just over a 5 day work week. Recalculate with ~1525 built per day =93 days off / year That’s a 5 day work week when you figure they close for Xmas & New Years. Anyone can correct me if I’m wrong.
