Former $1,000 and $14OO cars cost about as
much as Hudson Super-Six
No changes warrant such increase. They are
practically the same the cars which recently sold
at 5000 to $500 less than the Hudson Super-Six
Cars in the $1,000 class and up have increased from
$3.50 to $500. That removes them further from the
Hudson Super-Six price.
Increased cost of material is responsible for the
higher prices.
Hudson prices have not increased this year. Our
materials were contracted for months ago. When
present supplies are exhausted then Hudsons too
must cost more Until then Hudson, because OF its
value, is the lowest priced car on the market.
Here is an indication of how prices have been
affected Consider just one item.
The principal material in fine automobile is steel
All steel is made from iron.
For rs years before the Great War the average
price of iron was few cents over SIG ton. In De-
cer1,ber last it was $50 ton. 1t now is S54 ton.
Makers who bought materials this year must get
wore for their cars than for those built of materials

You Need No Greater
Proof for Hudson

A double transcontinental with seven-pas-
senger phaeton broke every previous record each way
Pixies Peak, up the highest and longest mountain
road in the world climbed by SurerSix special
in less time than any other car. Twenty-Five OF the
worlds fastest special contested stock chassis
established the record for the fastest mile stock
SuperSix phaeton made the fastest time for one hour
Carrying driver and one passenger car fully equipped
it Travelled 100 miles at average of 7467 miles per
hour.
A stock chassis made the greatest 24-hour long
distance run on record It covered 1919 miles in that
time and at the stop showed nothing to indicate that
its endurance had been reached.
But these tests, greater than any other ever
made not enough to reveal the limits of Hudson
endurance Then special racing were built that
they might compete on the speedway with the worlds
fastest most carefully built automobiles. The same
principle that accounts for Hudson endurance in the
stock cars is included in these.
The American Speedway record for 200 miles
established by of them at average speed OF 04
miles an hour.
That speed for that distance calls for endurance
beyond that which ordinarily is needed in lifetme's
requirements. These are proofs OF Hudson endur-
ance They indicate the service you may expect from
Hudson Super-Six IF such tests mean nothing to
YOU because of their extremes then think what the
service to almost 10000 users means There can be
no greater assurance than that
There is no advantage now in buying another car,
not the apparent saving in the first cost price.
But the number of Super Skies that can be built
from last years material purchases is limited IF you
are to get your at the present price it must be
from that number You must decide
