My dad was one of handful of peeps that got the whole joint venture, called NUMMI(New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc - Where Toyota AND GM manufactured some of their cars - It was joint venture between Toyota and GM. NUMMI helped change GM by introducing the Toyota Production System and a teamwork-based working environment to increase GM's overall quality) thing going back in the '84.
