    Not many details. It’s an AIP…still has to be ratified.

    25% raise plus COLA. Homerun for the UAW!!

    That's over $300 a week at the end of the deal. The deal is 56 months.

    No, they've already gone up. Just like every other union and non union vehicle made in the USA or imported. They all go up every year, regardless.

    Yep however this will definitely be used as an excuse to go up even more and blame it on the workers.

    That's it? This is exactly what I said should happen in week one. The pension and 4 day work week was garbage. Wasted a whole bunch of time.

    Uh no. It’s a competitive marketplace. It might squeeze my F dividend though.

    Seems they realized that strike fund was drying up and it would have been a problem telling those that have been working to walk and not enough money in the pot to pay. Far short of what Fain talked about from the start. Devils in the details. Both sides will say they made the other tap out.

    Listening to the video… Sounds like solid improvements for the members. The collective bargaining process works.

    Glad I bought my new Expedition 6 months ago. Prices surely to go up more than they initially would.

    It’s called negotiation. I’m sure ford was offering a 1% raise that didn’t come close to inflation.

    To the guys blaming uaw for rising prices, should be able to get a tundra way cheaper right?

    Of course it is. What exactly was the union looking for?
