Jn every detail of design and finished appearance, you will find it is 'ala mode," compares favorably with the smartest cars selling at the highest prices
You will find real leather and real hair in the upholstery no substitutes.
The unbroken steam line; the smooth sides; and straight, almost unbroken top line presents tlu least air resistance, thus increasing the efficiency of the
car; eliminates eddy currents which in the case of the old types subjected the occupant to bad drafts in cold weather and to veritable sand storms in sum
mer. ..'
Study the lines of this Reo Light Four and you Tl agree it is a splendid combination of the beautiful and the utilitarian.
Reo engineers have steadfastly adhered to the principle of making the various major units motor, clutch and transmission, separate, while other makes,
with the exception of a few making very high priced cars, have adopted the cheaper method hitching transmission care to motor, with clutch also enclosed.
Need we emphasize here the simplicity of control? It is unnecessary because Reo -cars have long been famous for that "quality. Simplicity of control and
accessibility these are the qualities you have to associate with the very name Kco. The One Kod Control with no hand brake is best appreciated after driv
ing it yourself. Both foot levers are brake levers and both have locking devices.
Roadster body has three passenger capacity on one seat, it furnished with foot rail and detachable curtain support on bolh doors, and has extra luggage
space in rear of car.
"When Reo distributors were shown the new Light Four, their
surprise was great and their enthusiasm unbounded. It was just the
car for which their customers had been clamoring. It is well known in
the trade that the demand for Reo four-cylinder models has always
been hopelessly in excess of the factory output. The Reo Four is recog
nized as the Qttality Car at the Moderate Price.
It has never been the desire to build a four to compete with ihc
hoard of little, skimpy Fours that are only too palpably designed and
made to meet a competitive price. Reos were built without regard to
the price at which they sell that is determined afterwards when
the engineers have designed and the factory has built the product as
well as Reo exnerienc and Ro facilities enable, the juice is then set
as low as possible based on the cost of production.
The "factor of safety" should be taken into consideration when
buying a car, truck of tractor for your own use. Oversized bearings
and parts, such as our lines have, will stand the strain of overload
much better than others. Let us prove it.

Having built trucks for many years: havinir accumulated a
wealth of experience at a time vhen others were just beginning, the
manufacturers of the Reo conceived the idea that a truck capable of
twice the speed would not only carry as great a load in two trips as
one of twice the capacity, but that the life of such a truck, of mounted
on pneumatic tires, would be nearly twice that of ihe one mounted on
solid tires.
The old time truck and the great majority of those still built
is nrounted on solid tires, and so is incapable of sjM-eds greater
ten to twelve miles oa hour without deterioration. This is not a mere
statement there is plenty of data to prove it Ry putting the truck
on pneumatic tires the gear ratio was made to be a trifle over for to
one a standard passenger car ration. Originally it was supposed that
the pneumatic tires would need frequent replacements that punc
tures and blow-outs would cause vexation and delays, but time has
proved the error of such suppositions.
