I go to university near that plant (but live in Texas), and it’s a truly giant plant. I can’t imagine if it got shuttered. The Ford plant up in North St. Louis County that closed in 2006 is already growing weeds.

No more vans with the crappy Chrysler transmission. Nowlots of people are out of jobs.

I hope stupid suits at the top who NEVER listened to their car buyers will lose THEIR jobs.

Wow. That sucks. I grew up about 40 minutes from that plant and alot of folks from my town worked there are for their suppliers, including one of my best friends. Drive by there everytime I fly in or out of Stl on the way to my parents home in the sticks will be weird to see it empty now.

How about the union workers BUY THE DAM CARS THEY MAKE!!!, Less then 1/2 of union works buy the brand they work for… Just dive buy any auto plant, you will see “2″ employee parking lots, if it’s a Chevy plant you will see Chevy’s in one all other in another, and so they “CRY” that the Auto Maker must keep the plant open!

It’s the union worker’s slaking on the job that gave the “BIG 3″ poor quality, it’s there attitude that the auto maker owns then something and there out look that the cars of who they work for are junk, ” the ones they make” But hay they don’t care, as long the plant worker in Japan is doing good and he can keep a good roof over his families head, feed them and dress them, it’s all good. they don’t need none of that, right?

The Canuck buck probably factored into this as well thanks to our once again 20% (dis?)advantage. So if it makes anyone feel any better go ahead, blame Canada.
