Were all Bonnies (00-05) produced in the same factory?

Hrmm, I'm wondering when that switch happened.

Who else had their Bonne build in Missouri?

Looking through some old threads, came across this.

I did a LOT of work at Orion (also known as Lake Orion).

I believe all the Aurora'* were built there as well as a LOT of bonne'*. I know that quite a few SSEI'* came out of that assembly, and I believe all of the GXP'* did due to the Northstar powerplant.

FWIW.....I've seen better assembly lines

No. They now make the Chevy Express / GMC Savana vans. If I drive about a mile, I can see about 200 of them staged
