Interestingly CAT has a non-union engine plant here in Indiana. GM in the 1970s foolishly signed an agreement that all US plants would be unionized, so even their newer ones in right to work states are UAW.

CAT uses their non-union plants as leverage.

While GM was killed by the non-union transplants, CAT has done very well vs. Japan and Korea brands.
