That will be a tall order.

A union that's that entrenched is not going anywhere for a long, long time, if ever.

I think what they can do in the mean time is do something really crazy like try to make good quality, well designed cars that people want to buy.

The Malibu and Camaro are doing big things for GM, Fusion for Ford, Challenger for Chrysler, etc... but there's still no good small cars from any of them.

The Fiesta is coming. So is the Cruze. We'll see if they are any better than the models they replace.

Welcome! You don't want a new Camaro

Why not?

... besides the obvious cost increase associated with getting about half the gas mileage I get now.

... and probably way higher insurance rates.

... and this is Michigan, and rear drive kind of sucks in winter.

... but why ELSE?

They've lost their novelty, my buddy has had one since it came out and I see a bunch of them around my town even if they are V6s. I honestly think they look boring plus bad gas mileage and high payments suck and full coverage insurance isn't fun to pay for either. Besides you sound like you enjoy having your car stand out against all the GM stuff up there

They just fired half the freaking workers in America, how much easier can it get? not to mention there's about a billion unemployed auto workers right now.

If you want to be union, you're fired. If you want a job, you're not union. Problem solved.
