To say it was close would be an understatement. I Hope this results in members getting their addresses on-file corrected, before the next election.

Isn't the possible Maverick SUV already called Bronco Sport? Or are you thinking taking advantage of the longer wheelbase and making a 3-row version?

Fuzzy,
Do you think there's a possibility of Fain & Co "rotating the pain", and allowing MAP to go back to work, but then close one of the F-150 plants? This way, more of the Membership shares in the sacrifices.

Don't confuse the block design problem with the EGR valve issue, that also results in coolant loss.

Ask your dealer to look at the July 2023 C&I Programs for Retail Ordered Vehicles document, that provides the information you are looking for. I have seen it, but I am not authorized to share it.

He's already indicated that he does not have a rollover, he has a new order. I think he may be asking if his price is locked-in at time of order, and not subject to mid-year price increase.
Maybe? HRG
OK, I obviously have trouble with comprehension, so could someone explain to me the rational behind the 32-hour workweek at 40-hour pay? By my math, that's a 26% per hour increase, independent of whatever wage increase is negotiated. How is this even possible to ask for?

Right now in my driveway I have a made in Canada Edge, and a made in Mexico Maverick. As much as I wanted to order a made in USA '24 Ranger, and waited years for the latest update, the cost was too much to accept. I can't imagine that USA-made products won't see an additional MSRP increase as a result of whatever the new contract costs.

Are you kidding? You want to take the right of approval out of the hands of the members? At 73%, they've told the negotiators to go do a better job.

It's been a while, but I used to be proud to be able to provide my talent and "swing a hammer" for that organization, until I realized they were more interested in a financial contribution than a physical one.
