About
The public tour follows an elevated catwalk through stamping, body assembly with welding robots, paint, trim and final assembly, and the tester line. It is free and by reservation only, with seats released by date on the tour site. The route is about 1.25 miles with 250 stair steps, no restrooms and a quick pace, so crutches, casts, wheelchairs and canes are not allowed. School, business and college tours are arranged separately by request.
