Union labor, overseas production and labor, raw material sourcing & costs, the selection and management of thousands of suppliers, environmental and safety standards, not just for their products but for the factories that build them, extensive work adapting products to other countries, warranty policy, lemon laws, dealer network politics and figuring out ways to push unpopular vehicles onto their lots, extensive R&D on future technologies........how many Wall Street CEOs deal with these issues?
IMO the financial industry leaders are overpaid compared to manufacturing industry leaders...... Does that mean I advocate some sort of gov't salary caps, no.........Just spouting off my unproven and unproveable opinion.
