    Source: Toyota Tells Camry Plant Employees to Cut Costs — Now | TheDetroitBureau.com

    Employees at Toyota’s largest plant in North America were just delivered a message from Japan: cut costs or lose jobs.

    The company’s plant in Georgetown, Kentucky, produces the Camry, which is the best-selling sedan in the U.S., was told in a video from the company’s plant manager that currently it is cheaper for Toyota to build the Camry in Japan and ship it to Kentucky than it is to simply build it in Kentucky.

    I've taken two tours of this plant and it is 'Disneyland for Engineers.' I hope they get the problem(s) resolved.
