General Motors Fort Wayne Assembly

General Motors has announced its final factory investment, a $275 million spend on the Fort Wayne, IN, plant that assembles full-size pickups.

Back in May, the General promised it would be spending $2 billion on factory investments over the next year and a half. A series of announcements followed, with upgrades promised to the Chevrolet Corvette factory in Bowling Green, KY, engine plants in Flint and Bay City, MI, and a powertrain facility in Toledo, OH, among others. Most of GM's money will be saying close to home in the Midwest, with over $1.4 billion spent in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio.

Today's announcement follows a previous earmark for production of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups. GM had already confirmed $328 million for Flint Assembly. Previous reports have indicated that GM will launch its redesigned pickups as 2013 models.
