People making less than $30 an hour have nothing to lose in this economy. Most of them have just stayed on long enough to see this strike. Young UAW workers don't have houses, they maybe have apartments or live with family. There is no 'we'll blow through the strike funds and lose our house'...
I'd rather Chrysler as an entity cease to exist, and salvage Jeep and maybe Ram, than continue to allow these leeches to leech.
They're not going to strike all three, they're going after Stellantis, which is great. Bleed Stellantis dry like they've done to their Customers and workers.
The current situation is untenable. I would rather see Chrysler sold, even if it means fewer workers / plants, temporarily. It can build back. Chrysler deserves to be free from these leeches.
Shut the factories down, starve Tavares from what he cares about the most - money.
Sell Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram to GM already, LEAVE THIS COUNTRY YOU LEECHES.
/ahem ;)
Next-Gen Electric Chrysler SUV: No Longer Airflow in Name or Design
So yes, the original Airflow design was cancelled, the vehicle they are working on now is being purposely designed to receive a 'truck' designation so they aren't capped at $55K - the truck EV incentive extends all...
So building another factory and adding another variant, which is yielding (combined) 25% fewer sales than the single model (in the previous generation), is success by your definition?

The new Cherokee (KM) will be -
1) More Expensive than the Compass (stating the obvious here, but a mid-trim Compass is now in the mid-upper $30K range, which is insane)
2) Will most likely be in the low to mid $40K range for a mid-level trim, vastly more expensive than KL mid-level trim...
Correct. This management team isn't interested in competing on price, because they can't.
Hell, they killed the Cherokee, because they couldn't make a compelling product in highest volume / most competitive segment (D-size CUV) in the US market.
And the newest Grand Cherokees (WL74 / 5...
Even the lowly Expedition outsold the Wagoneer this past quarter - https://fordauthority.com/2023/04/ford-expedition-sales-numbers-figures-results-first-quarter-q1-2023/
The King of the market remains the Tahoe/Yukon/Suburban/Escalade. Unsurprisingly, all of these GM vehicles come standard with...
"BTW, I don't think Stellantis is price gouging. If it's price gouging people would just have to put up with what the corporation is charging, instead Jeeps and Rams are stacking up on the lots."
They've never had higher EBIT in North America than what they have now, with the lowest volume...
