Every American car plant I was ever in drove their cars from the end of the assembly line to the holding lot. If you have ever seen the end of a car assembly line, you wouldn't forget it. There was oil, transmission fluid, anti-freeze etc all over the floors. The driver would jump in and slowly drive out of the fluids then nail it! It was always fun to watch. I was visiting various GM, Ford and Chrysler Plants from the early 70s to the early 90s in Northeast Ohio and the Detroit area. I am sure it is still done the same today.
I never did visit the Vega Plant. I think it was in Lordstown, Ohio. They could have done it differently.
