how else do you think they get them on and off the boat? I am in Toledo (where they make Jeeps) and all of them are driven off the line to a holding lot 3-5 miles away, there are like 4 or 5 of these holding lots around town, it is kinda funny when they kick up production because there will be like 1,000,000 Jeep Liberty's all parked nicely in one parking lot.
Also my Dad works at one of the Dodge Ram Assembly plants in Warren, MI. They do about the same thing, but almost every car driven off the line they do a burn-out right off the line, my dad says it is funny to watch.

thats funny. Not new cars but my parents were at a dealership trying to buy a new toyota some years ago. one of the sales guys needed to move some cars on their lot and asked if I wanted to join him while I was waiting.
First car we hopped into was an mr2 and we did a couple of high speed laps/burnouts around the lot. Same went for the other two cars we moved. Curious how many new / used cars on a lot lose a bit of rubber this way?
