Awesome. Kokomo is one of those towns where the factory is the prominent part of the place. Good to hear they are doing better.

Lets just hope they can use that new Getrag factory soon, although I have my doubt.

my dad is from kokomo. i cant tell you how many family members i have either at delco , or at chrysler, or any number of suppliers. the town used to have two steel mills. dad worked there. grandpa retired from the transmission shop. he was a master machinist like my uncles. the town is a shadow of its former glory.

stop light city, its called.
