Is the strike going to affect the HD trucks?


Recommended Posts

Those plants aren’t actually striking (as of today) but the plants targeted with the latest expansion of the strike will intentionally impact parts supply…so eventually may be an indirect impact.

 

I have an (in-law) family member waiting to get called because he wants some time off 😬so we get updated pretty quickly

Went by there yesterday and things looked pretty normal except for one small lot near Bristol rd and I-75. I suspect they may have moved those trucks due to the proximity to the more visible roads (think picket area) 

I believe this was the staging area for repair jobs

Ford super duty plant shut down. I guess over 8k ppl walked out. Flint next?

 

Arlington (Tahoe/Suburban) is the next threat and could make GM squeal. That is, if they care. GM could be secretly loving this. Limited quantity and huge demand has delivered them record average transaction prices and profits.

 

2024 single cab gas HD 4x4 LTs are going for $58k now.

 

Clown world.

$58k for that? Ugh.

 

I told my wife the 2024 2500 LT we purchased will be the LAST American brand vehicle we purchase until this UAW garbage is gone.

Oshawa is in the clear.  UNIFOR (the Canadian version of the UAW) voted 80.5% yes to their new contract.  20% for production and 25% for skilled trades over the lifetime of three-year agreement, and cost of living adjustment comes back by the end of 2024.

 

Unifor reaches deal with GM, puts strike at Canada plants on hold (detroitnews.com)

 

It was a short strike too.  They started Tuedsay last week, voted yes on Sunday.  

 

Hopefully GM can copy/paste this and get the UAW to agree to something.
