GM News: Unifor Drops Some Print Ads on GM's Doorstep
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in General Motors
First off EVs are NOT TOYS! Sedcond, for the size and what is currently offered, there is no compromises with electrics, they have beaten many times ICE auto's. Third, ICE is the present, will become a dwindling of the future in YOUR LIFE TIME! I believe there is enough competition for competent assembly line workers to keep wages inline. Too much info and protective rights especially for companies from socialist Europe to try and go rock bottom cheap wages. Quality will keep things in check I believe.- 63 replies

Renault such a Socialist corrupt place France is. Not surprised as they see it as business as usual compared to Asian countries honor. Clearly he stepped on some small toes bringing reaction to his abusive ways. Judge releasing him is normal, also normal for prosecutors to keep digging to find new charges.

Bentley is BLAH style, Old Europe Old Thinking, OLD OLD OLD, Why buy a Bentley when you can have so many far better options including EVs. Bentley needs to revolutionize themselves or die off to the history books.

I think Japanese saw him as a flight risk and have additional charges they will use to keep him in prison as we see new charges added every 10 days. Just a gut feeling on this.

GM News: Unifor Drops Some Print Ads on GM's Doorstep
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in General Motors
I totally agree, in my early years out of college I was at a company with a union and had to join as it was a requirement, less than 30 days, was also written up for doing more work than others of equal job and others who had that job but was not doing it. Less I say, by 90 days I had found a job with better pay and no union crap. Twice in my life once in College and once afterwards I worked for Unions and they gave me nothing but grief. Unions had a good place in the early days, now just political gas bags of waste that only serve a very small portion of humanity. More and more people are better educated and know they do not need to pay someone to get a fair wage and job growth.- 63 replies

@A Horse With No Name @Robert Hall @balthazar This company is up in a little town called LaConner, indian reservation, the guy uses recovered wood from the Ocean, buildings, forest, etc. I bought my wife her Jewelry box from here it is a work of Art. We want to one day after we remodel our house get one of his custom built square tables for 12 people. Just beautiful wood work. https://www.makerswoodworks.com/ I will also say that my wife and I love these two woodworking companies out of Victoria BC in Canada. https://www.houzz.com/pro/arosteguistudio/arostegui-studio-furniture-and-design http://www.arosteguistudio.com/arostegui-studio-home

I never get tired of wood furniture, Just awesome! Great leg workout! I do agree that stairs suck for normal every day use.

G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in General Motors
Blue Collar scare tactics as the Union Bosses are worried about loosing their cushy paid jobs for minimal benefits by not having union members to pay them for pathetic labor negotiations. I support GM on this! Please post facts on this as I have not seen that the non-union plants are that far underpaid. From stories I find, the non-Union plants mostly pay more than the UAW. https://www.autoblog.com/2015/03/29/foreign-domestic-automakers-wage-gap/ Seems in this story, Toyota pays their non-Union workers more than the average GM union worker. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-true-price-of-auto-labor-costs/ I see NO VALUE from the Unions today.- 63 replies

GMC News: GMC Offers A Performance Pack For Sierra AT4

Yes Hummer has baggage, but the hummer package of off road capability is what GMC needs as an upgraded series of performance packages. -

G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in GMC Trucks
Cool, so glad to see this at GMC, Wish they would put together a Hummer package that offered some of the AWESOME off road crawl capabilities. I think they need that as an add on package like this.
