George Romney saw the future

Quotes

“Years before Ralph Nader became famous, years before Toyota and Nissan and Honda became juggernauts, and years before anyone was paying $4 a gallon for gasoline, George Romney knew that cars were going to have to shrink and become more fuel efficient.

He was the one who coined the phrase ‘gas guzzling dinosaurs,’ not some sprout-eating environmentalist. Of course, even George Romney admitted a motivation was to set his tiny company apart from the giants in Detroit, but there’s good evidence to support the fact that he did believe that small was the future.”

— Micheline Maynard, Jalopnik
