With Labor Day weekend upon us we thought we'd take time to recognize the American auto worker and their contribution to cars we love. What's the best American union-built car of all time?
We'd have to go with the latest iteration of the Corvette ZR1, much of it lovingly hand-built by UAW members in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The ZR1 rivals Europeans and Japanese sports cars at a lower price and with a 100,000 mile warranty, thus proving the efficiency and talent of the American worker. Sure, 9% of the parts are sourced from other countries, but that's sort of unavoidable these days.
What do you think is the best American union-built car of any era? If you need help finding one check out this guide for post-2004 model vehicles. Remember, this is the U.S.A. Labor Day, so we don't want cars built by German unions.
