If they add Truck Nuts to a truck that came without Truck Nuts, they've performed gender affirmation surgery on their trans truck and are therefore Woke.
Yeah, that ain't happening. The corporate suits just found out what happens when you let MBAs run an engineering company, the 737 MAX fiasco just about sank the company. It happened because the MBAs laid off all the experienced real-time system programmers and contracted the plane's new software to a company that normally wrote (IIRC) programs for financial firms. If the suits try that again shareholders are going to kick their asses.
They're not a union shop, at least not currently. A former coworker is now their head of physical security, he says that the company intends to keep employees happy enough that they don't feel the need to unionize but that they won't stand in the way if they do. We'll see how it comes out.
When Amazon was looking to site its second headquarters (HQ2) some of the most absurd places tried to compete. Imagine the hiring interview, "Well, you've got the job, here's a ton of money, a bunch of stock, and a hiring bonus. When can you move to Dubuque?"
Ford is run by morons, and has been for decades. Amazon ordered 100,000 electric delivery vans from Rivian, which allowed them to get their financing. They've take delivery of the first couple thousand, and the pickups are now in production as well. There's one in our neighborhood already, and a former coworker canceled his reservation for a Tesla Cybertruck and has ordered a Rivian.
I’m gonna keep saying it: If you want to see Georgians get serious about battling climate change, convince them more Floridians will move up here as sea levels rise.
Rivian trucks are f*ing incredible. I actually know several traditional truck guys that are salivating to get one.
The Soros boogeyman stuff is straight-up Russian propaganda. I have good friends from Macedonia and Ukraine and they are amazed to hear Americans repeating the same propaganda they heard from pro-Russia propagandists in their home countries decades ago.
Last I heard they were planning on moving everything to South Carolina. "Boeing announced plans to shift its remaining 787 Dreamliner production from Washington State to South Carolina—wounding the nation's largest aerospace union. Boeing said it will make the mid-2021 move to “preserve liquidity” and “enhance efficiency and improve performance for the long-term,” in a statement."
One of my neighbors had a dually pickup truck, which he parks in with a Smart Car (with eyelashes!). The truck gets some use, but only for truck stuff. He's no chump and knows the cost of fuel.
Rather wonder if this isn't a tactic to get concessions from the unions rather than a real proposal. It wouldn't be the first time they threatened to move everything and then backed off when they saw the cost.

"Dubuque? Umm, never mind."

Well, since Coca-Cola has contracted mercenaries to assassinate union organizers in Colombia they're probably acceptable to Georgians.
Rivian trucks and SUVs performed way better than the electric Harley's on 'The Long Way Up".

Sleepy Joe is woke. or something

Okay, so just how many people in EmptyGee land Georgia can meet both of those pre-reqs?
One of my neighbors had a dually pickup truck, which he parks in with a Smart Car (with eyelashes!). The truck gets some use, but only for truck stuff. He's no chump and knows the cost of fuel.

Soros has been sounding that alarm, because he knows where it leads. That's why they hate him, that and religious intolerance.
Oh right, I always forget that one.
