GM announces 2007 loss and new buyouts for entire union workforce {Autoblog}

Feb 12th 2008 10:53AM Rar, I still find it hard to believe that american cars are up to par with japanese cars presently. I can't see someone getting 200-250k miles from an american car without lots of problems. Now this might not necessarily mean that it's the workers causing these reliability problems, but it might mean that the high labor costs cause the auto makers to buy lower quality parts which are causing the problems?

There are other japanese plants in the US that use non-unionized american labor. How do you explain their success for cars that last a long time?

GM announces 2007 loss and new buyouts for entire union workforce {Autoblog}

Feb 12th 2008 10:30AM I would agree with your argument if US automakers made quality products, but since they suck really bad, how do you justify $60/hr (thats $124K/yr) for crappy quality cars?

Just because people are getting paid that insane amount of money, doesn't mean that other workers can't be hired for less money to put the same crappy cars together. Hell you never know, it might actually be better quality in the long run and make people want to work their way up the ladder. Most jobs that don't require any kind of schooling usually has a salary cap, and for an assembly line worker $60/hr is recockulous and way above what the cap should be. This is what happens eventually when a union gets too greedy.

Hallelujah! Oklahoma busting slow drivers in left lane {Autoblog}

Jan 11th 2008 9:28AM This law is good if you live in the middle of nowhere, are on a 2-3 lane highway and there isn't constantly a lot of traffic. Try enforcing this law in L.A. on the 405 or 101 freeways or any other big city. You would be out of your mind to try to get everyone to stay to the right on a 5+ lane highway.

Saleen may release S281 Heritage Edition {Autoblog}

Apr 30th 2007 2:25PM hahaha just what is needed, another special edition mustang. Ford and Saleen are retarded. I guess nobody informed them that its not a good idea to have so many special editions that people can't even remember them 1 week after its announced. Im waiting for the Ronald McDonald edition that comes with its very own McFlurry machine in the back.
