All the big 3 have signaled they will move more production off shore by 2028 because of the union. Business sense.

And dodge has like 300 days of inventory and seems to mostly produce higher trim models to maximize profits, so yeah, they are piling up on lots.

Ford has thousands of f150s sitting in parking lots all over Michigan

Why not move everything to the South? You may still pay more than Mexico but it may be an issue finding skilled workers in another country.

When the union thing went down last year, I was dreaming that once the deal was done, the Big 3 would announce that they plan to move all operations to the South. It would be bold but it would work, and I can imagine the above average union worker would give the UAW the bird in a heartbeat in order to keep their career. I was in a union as it required me to join in order to get the job and it was horrible. Many of us (the valuable workers) wished the company we worked for would go private.
