The auto workers have a contract which specifies that they get paid even if they don't work.  So they get full pay despite the shutdown.

Where Chrysler will save money on is the cost of the car parts and the utilities.  Only 10% of the cost of the car is the pay for the workers..the rest is the cost of parts and utilities and transportation.

Basically, the dealerships aren't selling cars anyway...so they don't need new ones delivered. 

Chrysler needs the money from the government to pay their bills and more importantly, they need to find a less expensive way to build their cars and actually build cars the people want to buy.
