GM is not going to spend the money to switch out the tooling in that plant just for the new models (or whoever owns that plant). The last I heard, '08 is when they are switching everything out from the plastic. When they do this, no more Spring Hill. They'll be building the new designs at a different plant. I'm not sure which one, but it's not going to be Spring Hill. I forgot where I read this, I will look it up if you people don't believe me.
