Not whole cars, just parts.

When I go in there, there are trucks picking up, or dropping empty containers off for everyone. Chrysler, Toyota, Ford, G.M., Mercedes, and a host of others. Glass, is made by a company called "Guardian". They also produce it for everyone, and have various locations throughout the U.S. I pick up everything from body panels, to exhaust brackets, to harnesses, fasteners, glass, and hvac systems.

I have an account with a contractor called CEVA, which is intertwined with BMW. A few of my trucks, and me, haul trailers full of empty shipping containers, out to the various manufacturers, of the parts, and pick up loaded shipping containers, back to the plant.
I run from Greer, S.C. to points in Michigan, Indiana, and Tennesee, to swap out empty containers, for full ones, and back to Greer,S.C. BMW plant.

I see B.M.T. trucks at the plant, going in and out all day. They are a very busy company. I also see Wagoner's, going in and out. Aparently, they have a huge account with BMW also.
