That with all of the union problems at GM, the the quality of our beloved Hummer will take a nose dive with all the layoff's going on and the anamossity going on in the unnion ranks, I worry about the quality going down as pissed off unnion workers loosing their benifits will not care about quality.

That would not be a wise move on the union works part. If quality goes down, sales go down and they lose even more than they have so far.
I personally am not a fan of the unions at all but that is coming from my own experience. I think they have their place and time but I think they have hurt the auto makers as much as they have helped them. I am by no means an expert on the UAW or the auto makers but in another industry my experience was they caused far more companies financial problems than they help. Just my 2 cents and not to take anything away from the good people of the unions.

The UAW negotiating handbook doesn't have many pages dealing with wisdom or foresight.

Last time I will post on this thread.
Shreveport is not on the list. The only thing that would concern me is a possible strike at Delphi, and that might not even be as big a problem as some like to say.

Yes there are people worried about GM in general around here. And remember that GM is as much to blame as the unions are. GM accepted the union deals and also said that they would be good for the company. Now we see what can happen.
I don't believe that that the quality will change as we have a good workforce. You have people in any industry that can cause problems. The plant has checks and ballances in place to keep quality high. We are proud of what we build, and we plan to continue with world class quality.

I think they should do away with unions. I worked for McDonnell Douglas,(now Boeing) and I swear they had people there that shoulden't even buy a tickit on an airplane, let alone work on one. I repaird alot of screrwed up jobs on MD-11's and MD-80's. I could not beleave the things I saw there and the type of people I saw there. I know if it wern't for the union these people would't work there.

Well, my family is doing it's part to support GM. I got my (black) hummer 4 weeks ago. Since then my brother bought a (black) 2006 1500HD Z71, my mom just got a (black) 2006 Tahoe Sunday, and my dad called earlier this evening - he just test drove a 2006 Z06 and is thinking of getting that (black, I think). I'm hoping they open ANWR soon...
