Toyota deals with unions.

My Toyota Tacoma is built by UAW represented employees in California, in
the same plant as the Pontiac Vibe and some Corollas.

The brand-new Tundra plant in Texas is also UAW.

Oh! I was thinking of the Camry shops in Kentucky. last I heard, those
plants employees voted to keep the unions out.

The truck divisions are, IIRC, a completely separate division. Since the
Toyota trucks command a significant price premium, it stands to reason that
they could afford a union, especially a local that's much more cooperative.

I can imagine that a TRUCK plant would be union. :~)
