I was in Kansas City last week, talking to the folks who transport the new Buick LaCrosse cars across the country from the GM plant. They told me the new LaCrosse is so big they have to use rail cars designed for pick-up trucks to ship this car!
Apparently GM increased the roof line by nearly 1-1/2 inches late in the development process and now the car is too tall to fit in the 3-high auto hauling rail cars. I know the LaCrosse looks huge when I see one in a parking lot, I hope the 9-5 isn't as massive.
