Kudos to the brilliant guy that got moved up another floor in the Gauge Department. That is a moment in corporate history. So many unsung hero’s in this business.
As an aside, the Uncle of a woman I married back in the day - worked for GM in the late 50’s, 60’s and 70’s. So the story goes… he came up with the concept and designed the first intermittent and delay wiper switch.
Judging by his retirement, house on the lake, and well … his hubris… i never questioned it. I would have to think that idea may have germinated in other places as a result of Defense research, and air and space technology that was outpacing, more than likely the automobile industry then.
I have yet to see a gauge with the words “recycled cooking oil”on it though.
