"We are excited about this stuff," Gettelfinger said.
According to Dan Flores, spokesman for GM, both the manufacturer and the union will be great advantages of the transaction. Although the EU has already announced Details of the tentative agreement to its members and local officials, GM has not released comment on the case. The manufacturer is waiting the transaction should be ratified by the 74,000 union members before their views on the issue.
"Not only does this new agreement to strengthen safety of employees and retirees, it allows GM to reduce the gaps in our competitive industry, and improvements planned competitive We will maintain a strong industrial presence in the United States with significant investments to come, "said Flores

In addition, the new deal includes GM's VEBA pay the 20 additional payments of $ 165 million to 1.6 billion dollars in the case where money from the fund is insufficient to cover benefits for at least 200 years.
The union sent a letter to retirees to clear their ideas false on the trust fund. The letter said that the Union supports the Fund because it promotes their benefits, if ever experienced bankruptcy of GM. Voting for retirees is not necessary for the ratification of the contract.
To meet the safety requirements for use of the UAW, GM has initiated the production of GM crops in the 16 assembly plants in its 18 U.S. facilities, as published in the summary of negotiations with the UAW.
The 16 plants GM is committed to the Union will continue to produce its current products and next generation products.

The Volt arrive on the U.S. car market in 2010. On the other hand, a plant in Lordstown, Ohio, is expected to create a new GM vehicle subcompact.
"The It sounds fantastic," said Dave Green, president of one of two locals in Lordstown. He said preserves wages and health care for active workers "and we've done creative stuff that will make the company profitable in America North. "
Although there are new plans for such plants, the stability of the other plants are still uncertain.
Other GM plants such as Orion Township that creates the Pontiac G6 will help BMW (makes BMW ) Bra earn more and Wilmington, Delaware Plant, because these plants have not been listed by vehicles in the summary provided GM.
