Why you should go…

The Ford Rouge Factory Tour is a five-part visit to Ford Motor Company's Dearborn Truck Plant at the historic Rouge complex, reached by bus from The Henry Ford. You watch films in the Legacy Theater and the Manufacturing Innovation Theater, look out from an observation deck 80 feet up, and walk a suspended walkway above the final assembly area. The plant does not build during breaks, holidays or weekends, so the line may not be running in full.
