Thank Labor Unions.

[Jarlaxle]

Mismanagement by Big Auto destroyed Detroit. Focusing on the short term is no way to run a business.

Riiiiiiiiiight

The unions didn't decide to go with giant SUVs when gas prices hit record highs!

They also didn't decide to engineer crap and wrap it in the American flag. Does anyone remember the K-Car?

You mean the car that saved Chrysler?

That's the one. What a rattletrap. Our company bought a fleet of them when they were introduced and I doubt that all of them lasted a year. They were perhaps the primary reason I and so many others stopped buying American cars.

Oh, by the way, I don't think you've explained how it's the unions that are responsible for climbing prices and poor quality. That definitely needs explanation. Please extend me the same courtesy by providing it.

Poor quality? The worker doesnt design the product the engineers do. Then the company desides how much cheaper to make it to maximize profit. Dont you know how it works? And these "poor quality"?...Id would like to know EXACTLY what products your a speaking of.

Oh Really..

clearly illustrated by examining the results they produced after they were adopted by Japanese industry, as the following example shows. Ford Motor Company was simultaneously manufacturing a car model with transmissions made in Japan and the United States. Soon after the car model was on the market, Ford customers were requesting the model with Japanese transmission over the US-made transmission, and they were willing to wait for the Japanese model. As both transmissions were made to the same specifications, Ford engineers could not understand the customer preference for the model with Japanese transmission.

This made the Japanese cars run more smoothly and customers experienced fewer problems.[9], less variation.

Thank a union for Detroit

You like in a dream world of sound bites and bumper stickers. Foreign competition killed detroit moron.

No sir it was Auto Company Executives who decided to put the paint on only 3 molecules thick.

It was Auto Company Executives who decided to use thinner and thinner steel so they rusted out faster.

Auto Company Executives poor decisions drove people to foreign cards and destroyed Detroit.

Lmao, thinner steal rusts faster?

=====
It certainly does rust THROUGH faster. The thinner the steel the faster you get holes rusted in it.

How many rusted out 20 year old cars you seen lately ?

Its not because of the thickness of the steel...

Plenty, actually.

The K car probably ranks invthe top ten most significant cars in history. One, it saved Chrysler. Two, it was developed into the vehicle that turned Chrysler into a money machine: the minivan!

"Significant" is the word, right up there with the Pinto, Chevette and Pacer.

You are a truly SPECIAL kind of stupid, kid.

The K-car was a piece of crap. Ask your grandfather about it. What impact it had on Chrysler Corporation has nothing do with the poor performance of that fleet we bought.

Do you think that insulting people who provide you with information new to you is going to work in your favor in the real world out there?

 

[Jarlaxle]

Owned a K car (actually, mine was an L-body, the basis for the K)...know several other owners. Most were perfectly happy with theirs. My mother put over 250K on hers...I honestly think she'd still own it if it had air conditioning.

This looks like the model we bought a dozen of. I didn't have occasion to drive them all, but the ones I did drive were the worst vehicles I've ever driven. I was apparently not the only one of that opinion as they were all replaced the following year. At any one time only a few were operable.

It may have been a bad batch, but that's often enough to alter one's evaluation of similar products for a long time.

If you're confirming what I've been saying, give me a thanks. You should be quoting the people I was responding to. It's starting to look like you're taking issue with my posts by repeatedly quoting them, then agreeing with me.

You lost all credibility with me when you associated cheap goods with union labor. You mind is conquered.

What they DONT tell you is about all of the machinery Ford bought from china because it was cheaper and meant more profit, that wouldnt mill to those tolerances en mass because the chinese machines are cheap junk...so, blame it on labor. Everyone hates labor anyway.

Ok, then how do you explain the prosperity to everyone from 1945 to 1970 when unions were everywhere? And almost everything made here was union made you know when It was The US that supplied the world with QUALITY goods. America was revered for it quality.
