Not mere BRUTE power- power just for power's sake.
That's a simple thing for any engineer to build into any car
merely by using a heavier motor with bigger cylinders. And
incidentally, it's a costly thing because it burns up gasoline
for, power that you never need, j ; ,
Bijt free-flowing power that's fitted to the weight of the car
with the scientific accuracy that gears are designed to mesh
power enough for all your needs, to take you . uphill and
down, thro' mud and sand and over any roads youll ever
travel WITHOUT running up your fuel bills that's what
you get in this Studebaker FOUR.
And when you come to study the motor youll find little im
provements in design, better balance of moving parts, weight
cut from here and there and scores of other refinements that
make it one of the most wonderful pieces of engineering you
ever laid eyes on.
But the best test is to ride back of it and well be delighted to
demonstrate the car at any time to have you study not only
the motor but the balance of. this FOUR that makes for
EASY-riding and EASY-driving and, more important, LOW
UPKEEP, the grace of design and elegance of finish, and
all the comfort and the little conveniences that you get in
this car at $985 ,f. y
