DISTRIBUTORS ‘ | \ “Claims are all right—but ae proofs count.”” That was the caption to a recent Maxwell advertisement. You’ve read it of course. If you didn’t, you’ve missed something. In that advertisement we stated no claims were made for Maxwell motor cars that had not been proven. For example, that 44 days and nights non-stop test during which a standard stock model Maxwell covered 22,022 miles at an average speed of 25 miles an hour, was made under supervision of the A. A. A. officials—every minute of the time. That test made the Maxwell the long distance champion of ‘the world. It proved the reliability of this car. Then we set out to prove that this Maxwell gives a greater mileage per gallon of gasoline than any other car. First we.asked 1000 Maxwell dealers to make, all on a'certain day, a “gasoline economy” run. They did, and the average was 27.15 miles per gallon. “Good !”?.you say. Yes—but not for a Maxwell. Big as the mileage was, we knew it wasn’t what an average Maxwell ought to do. General Manager Flanders had a hunch that one thousand Maxwell owners would beat that record to a frazzle. You sce, he figured it this way—and events proved he was right: : The average dealer or garage man is a “bug” on carburetor adjustment. He thinks he is an expert. If you ask him, he will admit that he knows more about how to make a carburetor and how to adjust one than do all the Maxwell engineers! He’ll admit that—reluctantly and bashfully ’tis true—-but if you are adroit you can extract the confession from him, So Mr. Flanders opined that these experts had very cagefully adjusted their carburetore—and failed to obtain the results they should. And he figured that owners vot t oer would just drive thele Max- wells as they came from the factc: And, let us say here, just as it com = from the factory, a Maxwell is oe nearly a perfect automobile. So we offered $50,000 in Liberty Bonds, to be divided among Maxwell owners, for a gasoline economy test. We hoped one thousand would enter—more than three thousand did. Such is the enthusiasm of Maxwell owners! The conditions were.that only owners or members of their own families could drive, and the car must, be their own. The observers must be local newspaper men, or owners of other makes of cars. Get the point? : Of course you do—owners of other makes would naturally be critical and just a trifle skeptical. But we had another object in this—we knew that every Maxwell would catry’ ° i three Prospective buyers—if the Maxwell mage good under ee own supervision. And we knew it would! A little red tank—holding a fraction of a gill ee than one cies feist ’ each contestant. Attached to the dash, that tank attracted a lot of attention. “But why the’fraction less?” you ask. To compensate for the amount of gasoline held in the tube running from tank to carburetor. Each owner drove till his tank was empty—then he had to stop. And those three thousand Maxwell owner-drivers,.over all kinds of roads, in all climates, in every state, averaged 29.4 miles per gallon of gasoline. TNSY, record was attested under oath too, One owner actually made 51 miles on his gallon. It was almost incredible but a careful checking of the route, measurement of : the tank and statement under oath of the three observers proved he had actually done it. at The 500 highest obtained mileages ranging from 35 to 51 miles Our plan of inviting owners of other makes of cars to act as observers and checkers, worked out: fine—thousands of sales can be traced directly to that. In at least one case, all three observers sold their other cars and bought Maxwells within a month! Our dealers had a lot of fun too with those little red tanks afterwards. Here’s a typical case. Maxwell owner enters. In tones of undisguised skepticism says, “I see some owners average 29.4 miles on a gallon of gasoline. Got any cars like that tosell2— Td like to buy one.” “Why, you have one already—your own Maxwell will do as well or better.” “You'll have to show ine,” he replies. ‘‘Why, I don’ t average eighteen miles per “Vl show you,” laughs the dealer. Ina few minutes a little red-tank is attached to that Maxwell. Owner himself measures the gasoline and pours it in, and the owner drives. And in thousands of such cases no owner got less than 26 miles out of his gallon. From that time on, you may believe he was a Maxwell booster, right. Many Maxwell dealers still do—and all should—keep that little red tank on demonstrating cars, to prove our claims of gasoline economy. It is an unanswer- ‘able argument—positive proof. And we challenge any other car to prove its claims in the same way. Sensational stunts can be performed with one selected motor, in the hands of experts and in ideal conditions. Almost any motor car will perform creditably then. \ But for three thousand cars of one make and of all ages—1915, 16 and 17 modele— each driven by its own owner; each over a different route; in all parts of the country and on the same day, so that all kinds of weather from tropical to arctic were encount:red ;— To average <..4 miles per gallon mies such. conditions—that car must be | a Maxwell. gallon.” ; pean \
