You have a source for this claim or are you just throwing out numbers you've 'heard'? Here's what NBC Business News has to say about UAW wages, "
Maximum average hourly wages are $31.77 at Stellantis, $32 at Ford and $32.32 at GM." (Emphasis mine)
Why the UAW wants big raises from the '''Big Three''' automakers

I think vehicles, especially EV's are crazily overpriced and the consumer won't be able to pay higher prices for the vehicles that would be necessary with wage increases. Good luck.

Totally one-sided garbage. Management at the Big Three created their own path to 'destruction' by ignoring styling and especially engineering, instead concentrating solely on profits while relying on image and brand-loyalty to maintain their market share. Others, including dealerships and the unions, may share the blame for reduced sales and profit, but dropping this at the feet of the UAW is ridiculous.
