HupmObile Service Plan
Excellent For Tourists

That the new Nationwide Hupmo-
bile Service Plan is a practical sue
cess has been demonstrated by the
number of owners of the 1916 model
Hupmobile who have availed them
selves of the opportunity offered by
the Company to keep their cars in
good condition. This plan which all
lows for fifty hours service for each
Hupmobile calls for stipulated
amount of monthly service.
The new Hupmobile owners have
Immediately taken to the idea as is
demonstrated by the fact that 81 per
cent of the coupons available so far,
have been sent in to the factory for
redemption by the individual Hupmo-
bile Service Stations. This percent
age ratio will probably be increased
by coupons in transit.
Each Hupmobile owner will be
given fifty hours service which he may
secure at any Hupmobile Service Sta
ton throughout the United States and
Canada. He pays for this by the
coupon system and the service man
secures his remuneration by sending
the coupon to the factory for redemp-
ton out of the special Hupmobile
Service fund which was established
by the factory in conjunction with it's
dealers to take care of the owners
especial needs.
Many testimonials have already
been received by the factory from the
owners who heartily approve of the
much needed plan. From Shelby
vile. Indiana, P. J. Limpus writes
II purchased my 1916 Hupmobile
principally on account of the new
service system. I really believe that
this is the biggest step forward from
| the owners standpoint that any manu-
facturer of motor cars has made in
the last five years. The new plan
answers the service question in every
possible way and goes a step farther
by giving the Hupmobile owner def
mite meaning of the word Service -
The plan appealed also to my son and
daughter-i -in-law who will probably
drive the car most of the time"
Another from DR.. E. McKenney,
Chicago Junction, Ohio, says:-"En-
closed please find signed purchasers
agreement which entities me to a
! book of service coupons good for fifty
hours of Huproblle 2Service. l re-
| ceived my new Model n Hupmobile
from the Grasser Motor Company of
Toledo, and l want to mention the
courteous treatment extended me by
their service representatives l wish
to express my satisfaction with the
car and to congratulate you on the
new standardized service which GER
tainlY is a wonderful stride for COM
plete comfort for the owner"
Dealers throughout the country
state that the new service plan has
taken so we'll with individual owners
and especially those who have had
other cars in the past that it makes
the Hupmobile lire the easiest of any
to handle. Inq' ries have come into
the Hupmobilc 1ctory from scores
of dealers of other cars throughout
the country asking for chances to
take the agency for the Hupmobile
in their territory. The factory is al
ready far behind in orders and strenu-
Gus efforts are being made to get pro-
duction somewhere near the point
where the demand can be met.
Many dealers of other cars and
even factories have request the Hupp
Company for details for their Nation
wide Service Plan and several are
taking steps to inaugurate the sys-
tenn Where factories are not show
ling an interest in the service for the
owner, individual distributors are
contemplating and some have already
adopted the Hupmobile plan on a
smaller scale.
One thing is certain the innovation
of the factory -to-owner service has
revolutionized the automobile selling
system to such an extent that the
owner will be the benefactor.
