  1. I grew up around OKC, had a lot of friends who's parents worked there. Dayton Tire and GM shut down about the same time. I remember when the GM plant got hit by the 1999 Moore tornado.

  2. Being a right to work state, UAW helped GM choose Okc as being one of the first to close.
    The last things assembled there were the Colorado pickup, and the Hummer 2. Very little of this mockumentary is correct. Clickbait !

  3. October 26,1982 when I was 17 yrs old a senior at Carl Albert Sr. High School after I got off my afternoon job at 10:00 pm I ran into a couple of friends that said theres going to be a drag race on S. Air Depot just west of the GM Plant standing on the finish line when one of the drivers lost control leaving the roadway traveling over a 100 m.p.h. hitting me on my left side and then I went under the car where I stayed until the car came to a stop and caught fire..No one knew i was even under the car for hours until the wrecker driver was about to tow the car is when he found me wrapped around the rear axle and to had to be cut out to be removed. Ever since then my life has been screwed up,now im 60 yrs old.

  4. Lot of nonsense and disinformation in this video and some truth. I worked 09/26/1979 till the end and there was never three shifts of production. OKC ran 2 full shifts at full production and one shift during downturns. Much of the photos in this video are not of the OKC plant or are representative of the good folks of UAW Local 1999. Any portrayal that the plant closed because of the UAW is untrue. There was long term harm done by the short sided financial system that rewards corporations and punishing workers that still exists.

  5. It's part of Tinker Air Force base now. . .But is it just me, or is anyone else finding themselves abandoning videos halfway through because of bloated content that doesn't add anything but time? Take something that can be explained in 5 minutes, and make it into a 50 minute video? Especially as another commenter noted, who picked the photos for this? Most have no connection to the old GMAD plant?

  6. I responded to the 2003 fire in the paint pit as part of the OKC Fire hazmat team. It was a mess. We were on scene for about 10 hours. Ended up wading thru chest high water in the pits that we put on the fire. Fun times.

  7. I hired on there in April 1979 In the paint dept. and stayed till June 1981. At that time we worked mostly 6 days a week mandatory and there was lots of overtime to be had in my area. Many workers got used to the good money to be made and overspent, then went bankrupt when the extra hours eventually shut off.

  8. I worked for an industrial medicine company (early 1990s) that had a contract to take care of GM workers in the OKC plant. One of the more fascinating things about my experience there… was the difference in attitude between workers who had transferred in from the Midwest plants vs. the native born Oklahoma workers. The Midwest transplants were really hostile towards the company… and it almost seemed like they worked for the union. The Oklahoma workers were less hostile toward GM. The Oklahoma workers knew there were no other steady blue collar jobs in the state that paid 20 bucks an hour. They were still just glad that GM had put a plant in town.

  9. Bring from there. The union is why. The union still a has a manned pristine building across the street last time I checked. Though, I don't live in Oklahoma and don't drive by they're very much anymore.

  10. GM should have shut the thing down the minute Oklahoma screwed them on the taxes, and taken it as a business loss and made Oklahoma and object lesson to other states in what happens when you make promises you can't or won't keep.

  11. at any given time, you could drive by and there were thousands of new vehicles sitting outside. i was always in awe that any company would be able to sell so many cars within a single year. i always dreamed of growing up and being able to get one…….why did these big companies turn their backs on the people who literally made them what they are?

  12. My guess would be the Union Auto workers hall across the road didn't have anything to do with it.

    NAFTA didn't have anything to do with it either.

    Oops I didn't say that out loud did I…. My bad.

  13. I stood behind the place I worked and watched the train get chased by the tornado that ripped up the plant. It made a horrible sound and then nothing when it skipped the runway and dropped on the neighborhood on the other side. A horrible sound, then nothing. I oversaw engine personnel in the building afterward for a while.

  14. My stepdad took me on a tour of this plant back in '86. As Oklahoma was in the middle of the oil "bust"and our state's economy was nearly 90% based on oil everyone was hurting financially. But this was the job everyone wanted. We went from a owning of a struggling plumbing company to near abject poverty following bankruptcy that lasted several years until he got hired there. It was life changing and the people there really were a lot like family. The took good care of their employees and in return the employees took great pride in their work.
    After three years no birthday or Christmas gifts that weren't donated by charity I had the best Christmas ever.
    Sorry for such a long comment but I just wanted it known how important that plant was for our family as well as the entire OKC community. GM used to be awesome and then came NAFTA!
