and every other Studebaker
IS EXACTLY like It!

And remember that this record was made over the
roads right around here exactly the same roads
you yourself would drive over.
Nearly hundred other Studebaker Cars in nearly
a hundred different places in the country were
started in this same 1000 miles in 48 hours RELI-
ABILITY RUN. All were STOCK cars. And all
made good in the SAME way -NATION-wide
proof of Studebaker performance
Certainly you can't hope for STRONGER proofof
Studebaker superiority as a WINTER car. Any car
that will go through this l000-nie run as smoothly
as this car did, won't balk winter roads at
winter weather-and will do anything that the
winter brings you face to face with, plow through
snow and sushy roads, and over slippery streets,
and up long, icy hills with the POWER, flexible and
amending, that makes winter driving pleasure.
See the car today.

Get that in your mind.

This record was made by STOCK car-exactly
the same in every way as the you'd get if you
came in today and ordered Studebaker six"
The car you'd get and every other studebaker
six" will do exactly what this car did.
It has the same POWER $50 h. p)-the same
stamina-the same speed-the same fexibility-
the same ECONOMY of gasoline and oil the
same ridng-comforts And it will take hills and
plow along over muddy roads just as readily as
this car did.
Think! 1888 miles In Il hours running
time. An average of $50 miles per hour all
the way. 1t used only II2 gallons of gaso-
line for the entire run, making 100 miles
to the gallon And it used only 6quarts oil.
