In news that could well affect delivery of many Mavericks next month:
US supply chain under threat as unions, railroads, clash
Split union vote today means it is likely there will be a rail strike in early December, unless Congress intervenes, as industries which rely on rail delivery are urging.
There are 12 unions involved — all must approve the deal. Looks like eight have approved it, but four others have not.
We’re watching this closely as our truck is scheduled for production the week of 11/28 … And so if it does get made then, it would be ready to ship just as the strike deadline hits in early December. (As early as Dec. 9, reports say.)
