Transport from Spartanburg to Charleston

minaxe · 10-13-2011, 04:09 AM

Does anyone know how the X3:s are transported from the factory in Spartanburg to the port in Charleston? Train or truck?

The factory is pumping out about 10k units per month and based on the recent sales number I saw for the US I would estimate that at least half of the total production is exported. That would mean that about 250 units per day needs to be transported to the port in Charleston (5k/20 working days per month).

Driven, they pay a bunch of 16 year olds that just got their drivers license to drive them to the port and then bus them back...
