If GM, Ford or Chrysler had the brand equity to charge the absurd prices that Porsche does for cars and service parts, they would be in a better financial position. Just a thought.

As for the UAW jobs bank, that appears to be on the way out. The two-tier wage structure should help to bring the Detroit 3 close to wage parity with the "transplant" manufacturers, as long as they can make the VEBA work. See this:
