Default How long?

Once your car starts the assembly line, how long before it's produced.

Time on the line, with the line moving, is about 19 hours from the very first start of production to the point where it is driven off.

Thanks guys. Mine goes in about noon on Thursday and I was hoping it would be finished by Friday. I hope it's not going to be one of those Friday cars everyone says not to buy.

Kevin uses a different spot as the start point. Ask him.

It takes the 19 hours of line movement from start to finish to produce a car.
