While I sympathize with the workers wanting more money, I'm not looking forward to new vehicles being more unattainable than they already are.
This particular plant is making premium SUVs and pickups, by the sound of it, so already luxury vehicles. It's not like they're making economy cars.
It's still going to affect the whole car market. A truck buyer might switch to a smaller car, limiting those, driving up used car prices. If workers get what they want and we get more appetite for car alternatives, win win.
