Springs

Popular favor has been sought after by
the advocates of cantilever springs. Stude-
baker always held to the superiority Of the
three-quarter elliptic spring for rear suspen-
sion, and now, after three years vigorous
campaigning, the advantages of the latter
type, in spite of its higher cost, make it the
ruling f~avorite. A singular point in
ton with the use of the t~hree-quarter elliptic
springs by Studebaker is the fact that this
type IS used almost exclusively on all higher
priced cars.

Seating Capacity

Of the 100 Models of all classes of Fours,
Skies and Fights selling for less than
$1,000, the Studebaker FOUR is the only
car which seats seven people. Not a car in
The world combines the roominess and COM
fort of this Studebaker for less than $1,000.
In fact, there are only three models of all
cars selling for less than S11o0 which have
a seven-passenger capacity.
There is still another angle to this price
and seating capacity argument. Let us look
further. Practically every sever1-passenger
model is much higher priced than the Stude-
baker. The average price of all seven-pas-
senger, four-cylinder models is s2738, three
times the price Of the studebaker FOUR.
The average price of all seven-passenger
Skies, Fights and Twelves is $4,000, three
and seven-tenths times the price Of a Stude-
baker SIX.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1916-09-16

all of them in power. Out of the few of these
70 f~our-cylinder cars which exceed the horse
power rating of the Studebaker FOUR, the
average price is $2O22. Again nearly three
times the price of the Studebaker car. Why
the additional $l147?
There you have the actual proof of the
superiority of Studebaker Power cars over
the average of all other cars.
We now come to the PROOF that not
only in POWER, but in EVERY important
feature of construction, regardless of cost,
Studebaker uses design recognized by the
majority as the BEST.
Below we show point by point. where the
analysis, made by the motor car journals.
proves that every important feature of
Studebaker construction has been adopted
by the majority of motor car builders. You
can find a description of the various types OF
construction if you will refer to the journals
from which this analysis was made, and If
you will write us we will be very glad to give
you publication dates of the journals which
contain this information.
The splendid policy of the automobile in
dustry in taking the public into its confidence
and educating it to an understanding of what
is most efficient in motor car construction,
through the pages of trade journals, has been
of great assistance in helping the motor car
buyer to select the right car. Public demand
has dictated the prevailing types in motor
cars just as it has prevailing types in other
things; but in motor cars, more than in any,
thing else, the demand IS based on logical
reasoning and good judgment, rather than
on mere whim or impression.
The STYLES in construction which have
proven best in the opinion Of the public and
also in the opinion Of the automobile engi-
neering profession, stand as the guide for
Studebaker, and it has always been a Stude-
baker policy to continually improve its prod
rct and to merit the confidence and endorse
ment of the public.

Power

The public wants power in an automobile.
That is the basis on which most cars are
sold. Almost from the beginning Stude-
baker has demonstrated to believers and
skeptics alike the superiority of the Stude-
baker Series II in this respect, until it is now
an accepted fact. To clinch the argument,
here are the figures.
The average price of all of the los Six,
Eight and Twelve cylinder cars manufac-
tured is S1e17, yet the Studebaker SIX at
S1os5 is 1926 ahead of the average of these
1O5 cars in power. Of the few of these los
cars which equal or exceed the rating of the
Studebaker SIX in power, the average price
is $4,000, almost three times as much as the
S%tudebaker SIX, Why the additional $1,000?
The average price of all of the 70 four-cyl-
inder cars is S1278, yet the Studebaker
FOUR at SS75 is 7.8G ahead of the average of
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1916-09-16
Price

Price is only cle factor in making up the
composite whole of"GREATEST VALUE
The average price, the standard with which
to compar all automobile prices, is made up
from 43e models of 1917 cars, and shows that
the standard car would sell for $500. This
is just S5l5-47ft-higher than the cost OF
. Series II Studebaker SIX. 1t is S515
almost 25G-above the average cost OF the
eight Studebaker models. Every purchaser
of the Studebaker car knows the benefit OF
from $500 to $500 saving.
But we cannot stop there. Price is just
the beginning of GREATEST VALUE"
for you will see in the following analysis that
a Studebaker owner does not get from $500
to $500 less value. By cold, hard figures ne
gets greater value. point by point, than he
would, not only in the average Of all cars, but
also in the average of all cars OF the same and
higher price classes.
Every important feature Of Studebaker
construction is used either by the largest
number of makers-ar endorsement in itself
or by those makers whose cars sell for a
much higher price than Studebaker-a still
higher endorsement.

Ignition

The controversy over the relative merit
of the generator-battery ignition as against
magnetic ignition has been bitterly fought,
but since it was adopted by Studebaker, four
years ago, generator-battery ignition has
been steadily gaining ground in its struggle
for popularity. The simplicity, the reliabil-
ity, the durability and the freedom from all
trouble of the generator-battery ignition
system have proven that Studebaker was
right in adopting this type of ignition. The
wisdom of the change is becoming more OBJ
vious every day. OF the two types of igni-
ton the percentages are as follows:
Generator-Battery 56.4g
Magnetic . 1866
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1916-09-16
Rear Axle

Studebaker has from the beginning led the
field in the simplicity, safety, lightness, and
efficiency of rear axle design, and in pursu-
ance of this policy has adhered strictly to the
%full-hoating rear axle. One by n other
manufacturers have come into line as public
demand turns more and more strongly in
this direction. The preference is indicated
as follows:

Semi-hoating -. .....".....21.8S

Timing Gears

Smooth, quiet, positive running timing
gears are essential to the satisfaction of all
car owners. Experience has shown that
helical gears are the type best suited to ac-
complish satisfactory results. So-called
silent chains and spur gears are used in some
instances, but Studebaker as usual lines up
with what is generally conceded to be the
best type.

Timken Bearings

Timken bearings are the most efficient, but
they are also the most expensive. Most
manufacturers hesitate to equip their prod
uct completely with Thinker bearings be-
cause of the cost, but Studebaker does not
let this consideration stand in the way for a
moment. Studebaker is one Of only four
teen manufacturers to offer full Timken
equipment, and the average price of the other
manufacturers cars is $4,000.

L-Head Motor

Studebaker engineers are sound in their
reasons for building motors of the L-Head
type. Of all manufacturers 71.1g use that
type exclusively, because that type is what
the public wants. If the demand were for
valve-in-the-head, T-head, or sleeve valve
motors, the percentage of these types would
be greater. The accompanying table shows
the trend of the public demand and it proves
conclusively that Studebaker is building
what the public wants.
L-Head ........... ....7l.lS
Va1ve-in-Head ..........l2.3S
T-Head .................12.2S
Sleeve Valve ............ 44.4Ss

Fours and Skies

The popular demand has conferred on cars
of four and six cylinders, hence Studebaker
confines itself to these two types. The wis
dom of this policy is shown when the ~classifi'
cation of all cars shows that Fours and Skies
together constitute $685. of the 439 models.
The division is as follows:

Cooling System

the highest priced cars-have decided in
favor Of the pump system. This is the only
system Studebaker has ever used. Some use

Gasoline Feed System

In keeping with the demand for a better
streamline design, horizontal body lines,
greater gasoline capacity, and to insure a
positive and even flow of gasoline to the
carburetor, 55G of automobile manufacturers
have adopted vacuum gasoline feed The
division is as follows:
Vacuum Feed $500 .
~ Gravity Feed 34.4s
Pressure Feed 1867
The average price of all Fours using va
cuum feed system is $3.50; of all Skies using
it, the average.price is S1628: yet we find it
in the Studebaker at much less money.

cast successfully six cylinder motors in one
block. Advanced ideas in engineering and
factory practice put Studebaker in the lead.

Starting System

Studebaker was one of the first to use an
electric starting and lighting system. Stude-
baker-Wagner equipment was used from the
very first, the only change being made after
the first year when the two-unit system now
in use was adopted instead of the less eff
Gent s%ingle-unit system of the first year.
Again Studebaker superiority is proved by
the comparative percentages:
Two-unit systems .51.O4
S%ingle-unit systems .........4 1905
Still more convincing is the use in Stude.
baker cars of the six-volt system. Expe-
rience has shown that this type is most eff
Gent and consequently it is used by Stude-
baker. There are other voltages used, but
the six-volt p~redoniiaates.
