Well, one could have a school in building sniper nests in abandoned buildings in urban areas.

The Packard plant isn’t even located on a scenic river.

Perhaps, but keep in mind that location is everything. Detroit is bound to become one of the hottest tourist destinations any day now.
You mean it's going to be up near the top of the list with Newark, Oakland, and Sanford?

Better be soon. The RenCen won't last forever.

“Ask the man who owns one.” Long ago motto of Packard. A high class vehicle of it’s day. Although they did introduce the 110/120 series of “family cars.”

Dad and the family were stationed in Japan in the 1950s and needless to say, the roads were poor. The big black tank of a Packard could take the rutted roads without a whimper.
