Casey in Ky said: (quoted from post at 17:44:56 03/31/09) Any american made Toyota Tacoma or Toyota Corolla is UNION made in UAW plants. Now if you by one that was made outside of the states, then it is a non-union vehicle. But the point I was trying to make is if GM's management makes 14 times more than Toyota's(OK, that might not hold true across all management employees, but I bet GM's white collar employees make a whole hell of a lot more than Toyota's), then why are we suppose to be outraged at GM's hourly employees making less than double what Toyota's do?? The problem with GM, Chrysler, and yes even Ford(they are in almost as bad as shape, they just borrowed enough money before the "credit crisis") is not with the employees that make $1000 or $1500 a week. The problem is is with the employee's that make a $1000 or $1500 a day.
Only two models are union made? That isn't enough to be a huge deal, they can stomach that. They are just now starting to make the beloved Prius here, otherwise they have been hauling them into the country in boats. Most of the domestic makers fleet is union made in the states, and they catch a ton of crap if they try to outsource.
The reason I point my finger at the union is because while the execs make a lot more money than those across the pond, there are ALOT more hourly workers here.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
