George Romney: The Big 3 gave us an advantage.

WS of George Romney, then-President of American Motors; ROMNEY: "Now, the automotive division. Now, we have a very unique and exclusive position in the automobile business. The Big Three have given us an unusual opportunity. They've been making the Chevrolet and the Plymouth and the Ford bigger and bigger through the years. And the result is that now that we have urban traffic congestion and a growing suburban market and a rural market where people need more than one car and want an economical vehicle, uh, we have a car, the Rambler that, that fits urban, suburban, and rural travel requirements better than any other car on the road."
