Are Saturn cars Union made or not? Also, are US-made Toyotas Union? |
|
Always wondered this myself...

2. The Corolla and Tacoma been union-made up to now, |
|
but with the closure of the NUMMI facility that will cease to be. The Saturn Aura, Sky, and Outlook are UAW-produced. http://www.uaw.org/uawmade/auto/2009/index.cfm

6. I just posted the list of 2010 UAW or CAW built cars |
|
It reflects the absence of cars that GM is no longer producing

7. Good - I wouldn't buy a Toyota if they gave me money to do so. |
|
I'll stick with American-made, America-profited cars, myself.

9. Let me correct that for you.... |
|
I'll stick with American-made, international shareholder-profited cars, myself. = Ford, GM, Chrysler
As opposed to.... American-made, international shareholder-profited cars = Toyota, Honda, etc...

10. Saturns were union-made when I bought mine in 2005 |
|
That was one of several reasons I bought it. Also, it's a fine, dependable car. :)
