Dad called [General Motors designer] Harley Earl's designs 'chrome-plated barges,' ... He said that, if left to his own devices, Harley Earl would put fins on a TV or refrigerator.

I've been accused of being a shell designer - you start with a machine and enclose it. But in many cases, the shell is essential. A locomotive without a shell would be nonfunctional.

With my luck, if I ever invested in General Motors, they'd bust it to Corporal!

My goal is for General Motors to lead in safe autonomous driving.

If General Motors can't survive and run their business like a business, let them go under.

General Motors has no bad years, only good years and better years.
