mechanical features Of Dodge Broth
ers standard touring q were so well
adapted to use for high commercial
work that hundreds Of business con-
Germs bought the chassis alone and
had special commercial bodies built
to suit their requirements. Naturally,
this practice led to a demand for q
light commercial al AZ q part Of the
Dodge Brothers regular line Of cars.
The result is the practical, substan-
tial and good-appearinE vehicle which
is now being marketed. Precisely the
Kind Of a car you would expect Dodge
Brothers to build" was the remark
with which many dealers received it.
The specifications are similar to those
Of the standard touring car, except for
several details in which consideration
is given the necessity for handling a
much greater load. Among the details
referred to are 33x4 tires, heavier
springs, steering post set at higher an
gle and gasoline tank under the driv-
er's seat. In view OF the fact. that. the
standard car chassis has served with
much satisfaction in commercial work
it is apparent. with these extra assur-
ances Of stability, that the commercial
car is destined to occupy a position Of
importance in tho light delivery field.
