3347 Miles

Two Essex touring. cars, carrying I. ).
Mail, each one making the entire trip be-
tween san Francisco and New York, have
set the time records for their respective direc-
ions across the American continent.
And thus comes To Essex another distinc-
ton Cor reliability and endurance
Except ior one airplane record, these two
Essex cars have crossed the continent in less
time than was ever recorded by any travelling
machine. The fastest time possible between
San Francisco and New York by train is
slightly less than the time taken by the light
weight economical Essex But in the case OF
the railroad train, many different locomo-
tivcs are used, each pulling the train only a
few hundred miles.
From Cheyenne 10 Omaha the route taken
by the Essex was ~ miles longer than the $50
mile route oi the famous Overland Limited
vet the Essex time was but one hour longer
than the express train time.

The Worlds Most
Coveted Records

From the days OF the Prairie Schooner, Ike
Pony Express and the completion OF tie rail
roads men have sought to establish new
tranScontincrtal time records between the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
II has called Tor the highest development
OF skill and courage. And it has. as in the
case al the motor car blazed the way to me-
chanical reliability.
The purpose OF this Essex test was t.
prove is reliability. In the period OF III
hours was crowded more strains. more calls
for endurance and mechanical strength than
The average owner demands in life time.
Every requirement ut motor car perform
ancc was met Nv these two cars. And the
fact thai they 80 consistently met their tasks
proves Essex uniformity
Amarillo daily news. [volume] (Amarillo, Tex.) 19??-current, 1920-08-22

The speeds at which they travelled were not
so unusual, for another Essex stock car had
on a speedway track gone .,o37 miles in so
hours. But in the transcontincntal runs some
$50 cities and towns had to be crossed.
Crowded traffic imposed its obstacles to con-
sistent going. Mountain ranges in the East
and West with grades such as the average
driver never encounters. called for the utmost
oi hill climbing ability.
Few will ever motor all TIE way across
America and therefore cannot know the cx-
IRENE varieties OF conditions encountered
But let each reader apply to his consideration
oi what Essex has done every experience he
has ever met in his own driving Ii will give
some appreciation OF Essex reliability.
