Tesla Motors

San Jose officials say Tesla auto plant would bring more than 1,000 jobs - surprises me locating in such a high rent area with an auto plant. But I guess that's part of the brand. Most of the new fabs are being built in lower cost areas because the bay area has become so expensive. Nummi (joint venture of Toyota and GM) is still in Fremont, but California has lost all the other car manufacturer plants. Some day I am going to take a tour of Nummi! The Toyota quality/production system fascinates me.
