I've seen these lines of X6's get longer every time I go by this gate.The lines are now almost out to the main road.This is the delivery gate for all the "just in time" parts deliveries that BMW uses.It's also the gate where all the car haulers exit w/ new Bimmers on their way to dealerships.My only guess is that some of the paved storage areas previously used by BMW for car storage,is now under construction w/ the plant expansion.There is a couple more storage area's that have popped up in the last couple months ( knock some tree's down,grade a little bit,put gravel down,put up barbed wire fence). The next time you drive by, the lot is full of cars.My only concern as a future X6 owner is these cars are out in the elements 24/7 until they are shipped.I worry about hail storms this time of year.They are actually calling for bad storms today.I guess it's something all SE based car manufactures must worry about. I know Nissan in Mississippi came up w/ some sort of anti-hail system for their plant.I'm not losing my mind!!! It involved some sort of sonic wave guns that shoot up into the atmosphere after a radar system detects the right conditions for hail formation.The sonic waves somehow break up the hail!!!???? Maybe it's not that big of a deal.Thanks. PalBay
