Have You Ridden
intheNewReoSix! in
IF YOU HAVEN'T we think it is not too
much to say you have yet to taste the real
joys of motoring
AND WHEN YOU HAVE ridden in this big
luxurious equipage-the latest and in some
respects, greatest product of REQ experience
you will understand why this car enjoys
such a vogue-is so tremendously popular
this season.
REQ SIX WAS PROCLAIMED the Fashion
plate for 1916" by designers generally from
the moment its graceful lines were seen.
AND DOUBTLESS YOU'VE OBSERVED
the influence this Sheer Line REQ has ex-
erted on the design of seven passenger cars
generally.
BUT YOU MUST SEE IT--must ride in and
finally drive it yourself to fully appreciate
what magnificent car and what wonder
full value it is at its price.
AND THE CLOSER YOU STUDY the de-
tails-the more carefully you enquire into
every point of design, of construction, OF
quality of materials, Of equipment and hnish
the greater will be your admiration and
the deeper your wonderment that 1t is pos
sible to produce such a car for such price
FOR YOU MUST KNOW that this REQ Six
is made as only the REQ Folk can make
IL ;c reo1 inside and Out-the
REQ Folk do not use substitutes. Real
leather in the upholsterng and real hair
BUT THAT STATEMENT is scarcely neces-
sary. For you know the REQ Folk and you
know REQ ideals. You know that REQ repu-
tation is built on the most solid OF founda-
tions-a good product honestly made and
honestly sold and honestly backed up alter
ward.
so WHEN WE TELL YOU that this new
REQ Six is a REQ from radiator cap TO tail
light we have said the most that could be
said for any automobile.
AND THERE'S QUANTITY, TOO, if you
like to put it that way. This is big, full
size seven passenger car. Seats seven full
grown adults omfortably-luxuriously
WHEELBASE is 1875 INCHES. But that is
increased-or rather the riding qualities
to much more than it would otherwise
amount by the REQ cantlever springs
They enhance the riding qualities of car
immeasurabIy-e especially big car like this
New REQ Six.
BUT, AS WE SAID in the first paragraph
you will have to see and ride in it yourself
to fully appreciate. Then remember one
thing more
DEMAND is TREMENDOUSLY is
for REQ cars, but this season more than
ever. Only way to get REQ and be sure
of having it for spring delivery is to order
we'll in advance.
NEVER SINCE THE FIRST REQ was made
and went into the possession of its proud
owner has it been possible for us to make
enough cars to supply all who wanted Reos.
AND NOTWITHSTANDING the REQ plants
have been extended from year to year till
they now cover nearly forty acres 1923 to
be exac) still, we cannot supply the full
demand
ON MARCH FIRST there were more orders on
file at the REQ factory than at any previous
time in REQ history.
IF YOU APPRECIATE the shortage there is
going to be- If you want a REQ. And if
YOU get us your order now-tomorrow-
you will be one of the "lucky ones"
BUT DON'T DELAY-there won't be enough
never have been enough-Reos to 60
round.
