What about a GM alliance with Hyundai & Mitsubishi?

GM has a great infrastructure, world wide, that the others could use. The others bring manufacturing efficiencies, and if they were to run the factories that are presently being phased out a metamorphosis could occur. Mitsi has sexy cars, Hyundai is the Korean Toyota, they both could have a great impact on GM. I say it's a win, win, situation. The new factories would have to start out as non-union though I'd say (with incentives for productivities, and perhaps stock options for employees.) Unions have been known to bend when all concerned have their backs against the wall. Remember Chrysler getting bailed out by Washington, and the wage concessions Iococca got from his unions. They're the best of the big three now in terms of synergy.

1. how about no
2. No..highly hell no
3. The factory I work at is a cooperation with GM and Suzuki, located in Canada. You're right! It's great! While it did start out in the late 80's as non-union, it became unionized after a year or two. (Way before my time.) We are unionized now with the CAW and have excellent wages and benefits. I feel lucky to work there.
4. Hyundai is doing quite well on its own and doesn't need to be burdened with GMs unions and legacy systems. Mitsubishi is a dying organization and joining with GM would be no help to them. Besides, they are still partially tied with DCX. And when do you think GM would ever start a new facility without a union? Their current unions would strike and raise hell. The unions are too powerful and the unions are part of the problem.
