New Dodge Coming
Out With Fluid Drive,
Local Dealer Learns

Dodge will have a Fluid Drive
for 1941-according to informa-
ton just received from factory
headquarters in Detroit by Edgar
Reed of Reed Brothers, Rockville.
"This news was complete sur
prise" said Mr.. Reed. eve did
not expect to see this vital feature
adopted so soon for a car in the
popular price range of Dodge.
But now that the news is out, we
can promise the public an auto
mobile driving sensation they will
remember as the most exciting
chapter in all their motoring ex-
perience."
The Fluid Drive unit takes the
place of the engine flywheel and
consists of only two working
parts-two bowl-shaped shells into
which vanes or fins are welded,
which, set in motion by the turn
ing of the forward shell, pass the
power rotations to the rear shell
and the drive shaft.
where the new Dodge Fluid
Drive differs from most mechani-
cal improvements is that its ad-
vantages can actually be expert
enced," Mr.. Reed pointed out.
"That is why we expect to have
a busy time demonstrating the
remarkable new drive to the peo-
pie of this county from the mo-
ment the first Fluid Drive cars
are received-which will be soon."
