Two stories you motorheads should enjoy

Story #1: A High Tech Car Factory
Think about it. The last 20 or so years corporate America has been pounding in our ears about keeping the shareholder happy at all costs. We need to start thinking differently or companies like theses will kill us in no time.

Different mentality than we have here. Longterm planning in Germany vs short term focus on profit to report to Wall Street. Is it any wonder why we have lost our manufacturing to China, India, Germany, Japan and Korea?

Henry Ford roll over in your grave.

Story #2: Old 1930's Henderson Streamliner
This should interest those of you who can appreciate a nice bike; particularly if you're into old school stuff.

VW factory is wild.

Sweet scoot.

Wow, I used to know the guy that owns that Henderson Streamliner, Frank Westfall! He's been collecting motorcycles for a loooong time. He had a helluva collection when I knew him, and that was probably '94 or '95. God only knows what he has now.

I can't imagine how much that factory cost to put together and operate. Obviously worth the investment, I guess.

And that bike is awesome! Looks like an old 40s Olds or something.
