A winning combination of circumstances will soon be providing extensive overtime work -- and additional pay -- for many of the 3,000 associates at Subaru of Indiana Automotive Inc.

There's extra work on the SIA production lines thanks to a handful of reasons, including:

Cashing in on Clunkers
GM uptick good news for Allen County, Defiance, Ohio, plants
Cummins Walesboro shutdown cut to 3 weeks
Muncie car dealers: 'We've sold a lot of cars'
Chrysler calls back 200 for Kokomo plants
Cash for Clunkers' ripple effect in northeast Indiana
Clunkers program lifts Subaru's sales
